Traditionally, portrait art has been an intimate process.
One artist working with one model. Not any more. 4Traits
take the idea of portraiture to a totally different place.
We’re a team of artists working together on a group of
portraits, blending our separate styles, talents, and
insights into a cohesive whole.
Four people sit across the table from our four artists. Each
artist works on the portrait of the person seated across
from them for about 5 minutes. When the 5 minutes are
up, the person and their portrait move on to the next artist,
assembly line style. The next artist picks up where the last
one left off, continuing to build on their work, adding lines,
shapes, shadows, texture, and color. This process continues
until all four artists have worked on all four portraits.
