Portrait of Hector

"Hector" was the first student portrait I finished for "The Many of Faces of Andover" project I am doing for Phillips Academy in Andover, MA. It is an oil, 24" x 30". Hector is from the Dominican Republic, and he intended to become an Engineer. He was introduced to fencing at Andover and loved it! He chose to model for me in that outfit. It was also important to Hector to have both the American and the Dominican flags represented in his portrait. www.andover.edu
