Impressionistic Portraits and Paintings : An impressionistic portrait or painting is a great way to capture a beautiful moment. Color is based on the dress color . I make up the background and just suggest atmosphere using lighter and less saturated colors. This is an impressionistic portrait of movement, a charming gesture, a thoughtful moment not a focused portrait of a face. Prices start at $2000 for full lenght 16x20 multi media on paper in an impressionistic style with a light airy backgound. Each additional figure 50% of base fee. 16x20 $2000 20x24 $2500 20x30 $3000 30x40 $4600 40x50 $6000 45x60 $7000

Etchings : I started etching in the 60's at Ringling School of Art . It was an after school class and the students had bought the press. My first print was of an Aiken Polo Scene. Since the image is reversed when you print it the polo players which started out right handed after printing became lefties. It wasn't until the late 70's that I resumed this fascinating art form. You need a press and luckily there was on at Rose Hill Art Center. My next series of etchings were also of Aiken Polo but but this time I drew the image in reverse . Hercules Seghers has had the most influence on my printmaking . The most experimental printmaker of the seventh century,his etchings had a profound influence on Rembrandt. He regarded each impression of a print as an individual work of art. Even more remarkable than Seghers haunting paintings is his unprecedented experimentation with and manipulation of printmaking techniques. He frequently printed his etchings on prepared (hand colored) paper or cloth, to enrich the color and texture of each impression. Many of his etchings are printed in colored inks;he also selectively painted individual sheets with watercolor washes to vary the effect of each impression,casting different parts of the composition into darkness or light in each permutation. Each impression is individual and unique, a conscious attempt to blur the traditional boundaries between painting , drawing and printmaking. From one etching plate there are many impressions using different mediums and colors . In one impression I precolored the canvas, added color ala poupee to the plate , printed, then moved some of the oil color while it was still wet . The inks used in etching are oil based . Each printed impression is an original work of art as each impression is a unique look. Etchings in the same series are individualy priced as to the extensive amount of time variation in the production of each original print. and involve more work.

Bio : art@annelattimore.com Having grown up surrounded by art and antiquities no wonder that I would enjoy museums ,art and history. My father was a court Dr for some of the Nurnberg trials.We saw history in the making before settling at Aiken, South Carolina. Aiken offered lots of sunshine ,Southern culture and plenty of outdoor sports,especially anything to do with horses. As it is one of the first places south of the freeze line with soft sandy soils,many Northern equine enthusiasts make Aiken their winter home. Fox hunters,polo players,dressage riders and their support staff gather in Aiken each winter to socialize and ride. I learned to ride at Mead Hall. At nine I won my first ribbon in the Hitchcock Woods Show. My parents built a lighted ring on the edge of Hitchcock Woods so my sister Jennifer and I could ride horses with the name of songs Bill Bailey,Tom Dooley, Siboney, White Christmas night or day. Sis the horse was wanted by two Olympic Teams after her showing at the Garden and the Washington International Horse Show. In my teens my mother put on the first three day horse show in Aiken. There were all kinds of classes and horses,pony fancy turnout,walking,three and five gaited,hunter and open jumping events. As part of the show my mother hired a family with exotic doves and lippizaners to entertain in the Aiken Show and in Augusta for Masters' guests. They wanted me to join them but Mom objected so I didn't get to perform in a circus riding lippizaner horses but did get to attend Ringling School of art. My interest in other cultures and art was also inspired by my parents exploring and locating indian sites along the Savannah River. As a young boy my father dug at Ocmulgee with A.R Kelly. Two of my favorite sites are the Etowah Mounds and Stallings Island. An endless array of visiting archeologists stayed and dug with them. William Stiles from the Museum of the North American Indian fixated us with his stays with the Eskimos. Scott Eubanks search for the true Desoto route is still his quest. The den was full of potsherds painstakingly glued together by my mother. It was if Indiana Jones was living there. You never knew what you would find arrowheads,pots,bones, guns, old maps and books,a mystery waiting to be solved. My painted silks have some of the same patterns that I remembered from this period. In college I wandered into the wrong building and after seeing an oil painting class in progress decided to try that. Six months later on Hilton head at the USC Summer School of the Arts I sold my first painting to Charles Fraser and a watercolor to Arthur Gerhard whose collection of old master art included works by Piranesi www.artchive.com/artchive/P/piranesi.html/, Nicolas Poussin www.artchive.com/artchive/P/poussin.html/,and Zurbaran. In the early 70's my gallery affiliations were The Red Piano Gallery Hilton Head, Shore Gallery and Haley and Steele Newberry Street Boston. In the eighties Frances Aronson Gallery in Atlanta www.francesaronsonfineart.net , Arthur Ackerman N.Y. ,Venable Neslage in Washington D.C. and Atelier Seven, Paris France represented me.My work was also exhibited in the White House. art@annelattimore.com 803.648.3564

That's why it's important for me to know what my clients enjoy. For children Hopelands Garden is inspiring . A wonderful adventure so the child is focused on feeding the ducks and fish as we wander around the gardens while I take the photos. If they like horses, we can go to a stable just down the street and on the way we might see a carriage driven by or famous thoroughbreds being exercised. Clothes Timeless attire traditional in design will keep your portrait from being dated. Bold prints,trendy clothes ,jewelry, and certain hairstyles will date your portrait. If clothes are too elaborate it detracts form the face and overwhelms the personality.. Clothing should suit the personality. It is important that clothes fit properly. Men's clothing remains fairly simple. Look at the clothes in the paintings of one my favorite 19thcentury artists Thomas Wilmer Dewing . They are timeless . What will the subject be wearing? I would need a photo of the clothes they will be wearing. Style and Mood What style of painting do you like impressionistic, soft realism, or very realistic? Do you want a casual or formal look? What kind of expression do you want smiling,pensive,or serious? Is the subject shy,thoughtful,or outgoing? what are the subjects favorite hobby,activity, sport? Color and Background What are your favorite colors . What colors do you have in your home. What colors do you want in this painting. The colors for the painting have to be something that they are wearing or in the background for the photograhy session. If you have a dress in the style you want to wear I can change the color slightly form light to another light color but not from a dark to a light color. What knid of background do you want? The background sets the atmosphere of the painting and should work in harmony with the pose and expression of the subject. Procedure The lenght of time it takes to paint the portrait will vary from 2to 12 months. Phone or in person appointments are required before I can book you for a photography session. I need to know all the details of the portrait before I can block out time on my schedule. A nonrefundable retainer fee $500 is required before the photography session. The day of the photography session half of the projected fee of the portrait is due minus the retainer fee. After the photographs are taken if there is a change in the portrait goal then you will be reimbursed or the difference will be added to the final cost . A contract will be signed . During the photography session there should be no distractions for the subject. The amount of time I will need for photography will vary once in the morning and then we can go over the photos and if need be an afternoon session . I will use one photo as reference. Before I start the painting I will send you a small painted sketch of the portrait. I will also send you photos of the portrait progress or you may come to the studio . After the portrait is finished I will be happy to change aspects of the portrait but if the changes deviates greatly from the goal and the signed contract then this will add to the cost. The portrait suggestions are there to help you realize our goal,to create a lasting remembrance . If you are worried that you child is outgrowing the look you want and I'm booked for several projects, I can start the process with the photography session. This will also lock you in for the fee for that year. Lodging,travel expenses,framing,shipping and taxes where applicable are not included in the fee. art@annelattimore.com 803.648.3564
