I can't believe it's been nearly one year since I've posted to this blog!!! Shame on me. I have done some painting, but mostly studio work and just haven't gotten around to posting here. But, I have renewed vigor and excitement in working on a new painting. I was inspired by the famous portrait of Princess Diana by Nelson Shanks, so dress up my gorgeous niece in an outfit I can no longer wear :( and posed her in a similar style to the "master" work. It came out very nicely and I am in the early groundwork. It is on my favorite surface "Yes" triple primed linen streched, 18x24. I really wanted a 20x30, but they did not have my brand in that size, so I settled. Anyway...this is a start and I have a dealine, again, of Feb 18th to enter the Portrait Artists of Arizona 2nd Annual Members Exhibition coming up in April!
Looks like you're really coming along nicely on the portrait of Laura!
