I looked at Carolyn Anderson's paintings before attempting this
daunting challenge, which isn't really evident here. This lovely child
was visiting her grandparents a few weeks ago and Regina Taylor
caught this pose with her camera. I started getting the hang of it when
I got to her hand and learned a lot . . . wanted to try again before
posting but May is quickly disappearing!
Lorraine, this is absolutely perfect in every way...from the colors to the broad brushstrokes, I am in love with this one, you must paint more portraits!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Angela. I like the looseness and colors are lovely. I'm still struggling with this challenge. And time is flying!!! :-)
