Portrait of Mistress Troy

Mistress Troy, together with Mistress Venus whose portrait I published a while back, is one of New York’s legendary mistresses so I was very honoured to receive her commission a while back. She had a very clear idea of her fantasy and explained it succinctly but left enough leeway for me to extemporise on it -the perfect client!

She has created her own dedicated web-page  for this portrait, so I’ll leave it to her to give you a great description of the whole project.

Please remember if you are commissioning for a birthday to leave a few months as there is usually a waiting list for commissioned artwork.

Portrait of Lady Lila Stern

Lady Lila Stern of Los Angeles was gifted a copy of my Venus in Furs a few months back and instantly desired to be portrayed as Wanda herself. So this portrait is in very much the style of the ten watercolour illustrations in that book. The same watercolour technique, the same sensual atmosphere, the boots, the whip and of course, the furs…a huge fur coat. The commissioner of the portrait holds the wine before her -as her Severin.
