This auction item is a 24x30 painting portrait by portrait artist Vicki Popwell, valued at $3,100.

Vicki Popwell's work has been described as a “timeless art,” a compliment that she truly appreciates. She feels that trends come and go, but classic portraits always remain.

Classic portraiture means the subject is well lit and composed. The elements of the portrait, including the lighting, location, furniture, backgrounds and colors, harmonize with one another. The classic portrait may be posed or unposed, tranquil or energetic, but they have one common theme- they stand alone and celebrate the individual. These portraits don’t employ easily dated elements and most importantly, they stand the test of time.
