Portrait of Mary Conover - Final


Alas! I have finished this portrait of my good friend Mary. I think it is a very good likeness of her, but I'm not completely happy with the background. When I took the photos of the pose, I didn't put up any special draping, just used the ivory wall. So, I played around with the color of the background until I stopped with the present state. It is what it is. 12"x12" square canvas.
I hope Mary likes it :)

Tomorrow I will begin something new, an oil, but not sure yet which one it will be. I'm still doing pencil sketches from tv and film. It makes me feel like I'm doing something besides vegetating in front of the boob tube LOL
