XXV - Camera Craftsman, Helen Yancy Art and Photography

Most important history is raising 4 wonderful kids with my husband, Foster. We raised our family together as I established myself first as an artist doing commissioned oil portraits, then as an artist for photographers with oils, airbrush and all of the other media. After many years serving other photographers and as an instructor in hand coloring, airbrush and print enhancement techniques I began creating my own images in order to combine the best of the world of painting and the world of photography. Now in my residential studio and gallery, working with cameras, software, and especially traditional paints, I love producing unique commissioned portraits created from concept to the final painting entirely from my own images. I now teach others how to find their own creative style in unique and original ways and work with my clients from many areas of the world.
