  • "Most people don't look at a face too long; they tend to look away. But you do if you are painting a portrait"

     

    - David Hockney

    This portrait of Michele and John Spike depicts the duo seated at a small table, each with a cup of coffee in front of them. The calm yet slightly formal atmosphere is enhanced by their contrasting outfits: Michele in casual attire, while John is dressed in a suit, radiating a sense of composed elegance. The light blue walls, wooden floor, and framed artwork in the background contribute to a serene and intimate setting. Their facial expressions convey a quiet moment of conversation or reflection, with subtle body language adding warmth to the scene.
