The Ochsner Portrait

The oil portrait that I painted of Alton Ochsner is hung in the clinic lobby next to the payment office. He was one of a long line of doctors dating back to Paracelsus. He was instrumental in informing the public of the dangers of cigarette smoke.

I painted a study from a videotape and finished the formal portrait in the studio from photos and the study.

"Dr. Alton Ochsner Sr." Portrait in oils, 44x48 inches in clinic lobby, detail of face, study made from video.
