Four Minutes With On The Dot

Ladies, do you have a portrait of yourself or your family? I’m not talking selfies here; I mean real paint-on-canvas art depicting your lovely face. Albeit somewhat rare these days for average folks, portraits have quite the storied past. Some of the oldest portraits in existence date back to the year 1,000 A.D., and depict Chinese notables, with plenty of British monarchs and religious and political figureheads gracing the canvas later on. Common people have long been painted as well, from intrepid mothers to inspirational muses. So, what are you waiting for? Track down a skilled portraitist, settle into a perfect pose, then enjoy your portrait as a wonderful remembrance to be celebrated in your family for generations to come.
