Dawn Hampton

Mixed media on canvas, 40 inches x 30 inches, 2008

This portrait of the inspirational singer Dawn Hampton, who has performed with artists such as Cab Calloway, Bette Midler and Barry Manilow, is based on a photo I took of her at the Herrang Dance Camp. At that same dance camp Dawn sat for a live portrait which I created during the cabaret evening. Enjoy the video, "Happy Feet & Happy Paint", of this art performance.

The painting was displayed as part of Dawn's 82nd birthday celebrations in San Francisco, June, 2010:
