Commissioned Oil Portrait on Canvas
Fine oil portraits on canvas are a southern tradition
and at Soper Studio as we take this ultimate artistic expression very seriously.
Utilizing the finest archival canvas and legendary Windsor Newton oil paints,
Patrick prefers to paint much of his subject “Ala Prima” working
while the paint is wet, each brush stroke deftly applied on the under painting
as he “carves” the likeness on the canvas surface. The result is
a luminous finished painting that, not only captures the subject’s likeness,
but also is alive with energy and spirit.

“I love the process of making the subject take shape right on the canvas
one stroke at a time,” Patrick says “it’s such a rewarding
thing to create a portrait so imbued with life that it almost seems to breathe.”
