Another 2015 Couples Portrait

This is another one of the four paintings I finished in March 2015.J & B by Suzanne Forbes March 2015

The couple in the picture is very dear to me; they gave me sanctuary when I was homeless during the Great Recession and cared for me during my own post-horrible-divorce Great Depression.

They came up with the pose, which they sat for in their library; they’re wearing their wedding clothes. There are all kinds of meaningful and special objects, with many funny stories, on the shelves behind them.

I once jumped out of an airplane with these two!

Some 2015 paintings!

Here are two of the paintings I finished in 2015.Suzanne Forbes painting of M&N photographed by Neil Girling 2015

I went to Neil Girling‘s house for one last cocktail hour to varnish them and he was kind enough to photograph them for me.

They are both paintings of extremely good, smart, talented and ridiculously beautiful people who I love deeply, and I had a glorious time painting them. They are two of my four final finished works from my last month in the Bay Area and I am very proud of them; I hope you like them!
