Portraits | Anthony Galati

• Kristina & Adam

• Aislinn & Mark

  Oil, Panel, 30 x 24 x 1. This commission is of Aislinn and Mark on their wedding day by the water on Long Island. I hadn't done a painting with so many flowers before, and I'm particularly happy with how the tux came ou…

• Shadia

  Oil, Panel, 7 x 5 x .2. This painting was created by painting the model, Shadia, online. While she was posing, her nosey cat came over and was in view next to her for a while to get in on the action. Shadia chose the po…

• Khurram & Yumna

  Oil, Panel, 30 x 24 x .2. I enjoy the various material patterns and textures in this painting, as well as the ways in which the amber light interacts with the couple and their loveseat. I'm particularly happy with how t…

• Mother Teresa

  Oil, Panel, 16 x 12 x .2. This painting is a tribute to the charitable work that Mother Teresa did to help the people of India that were in need when no one else was there to come to their aid. *Free shipping. I require…

• Hennessey's

  Oil, Panel, 16 x 20 x .2. This painting was a commission for Jim Hennessey, the owner of this Irish bar. I was drawing the bar plein air out in the front one day and then Jim hired me to do a painting of it. I didn’t re…

• Patience

  Colored Pencil, Paper, 16.5 x 11.7. This drawing represents my first return to colored pencils after many years of going without doing any projects using them. I was very happy with how it turned out, and I particularly…

• Garrett

  Charcoal, Paper, 14 x 11. This is a special portrait that I did for a friend, as a way to remember a teenager that unfortunately died very young as the result of a senseless act of violence. I had replaced the mundane b…
