My Painting Friend Cindi and myself challenged ourselves to do a portrait in watercolor working vertically. We chose this beautiful photo of a little girl named Lauren,with permission from a friend in another forum, Thank you Deb S. we proceeded. I think I could of pushed her face back a little with more darks but overall very happy with the outcome. Please enjoy this delightful child and hope to hear comments.
Thanks again for looking
Gosh, Nora. You did a beautiful job on Lauren. I thought she might be a grandchild as there is something about her that reminds me of you...the eyes or the mouth...maybe the smile.
ReplyDeletehey kiddo.. you did wonderful.. we are going to get this portrait thingy , one way or another... you have made huge steps in the direction.. way to go, friend!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Autumn, sadly not mine. But isn't she a beauty.
ReplyDeleteCindi yep one day, hopefully sooner not later.
Hi Nora... I am so happy to meet you here... I have been so busy since... I was working on more than two projects and they overlapped ... I was so stressed and working very hard I didn´t have time to paint or post anything ... but I miss painting and I miss everyone ... I´m almost finished now ... so I will definitely go back to painting friends and the twenty minutes challenge...
ReplyDeleteI love the portrait you have done... I enjoyed your blog a lot and I love the light and darks in your still life paintings , still delicate but with stronger contrast... just beautiful
Thank you Jamila. Good to hear you're going back to painting.
ReplyDeleteLOvely portrait when I first looked at it I felt sure you knew who the sitter was because I see an inner quality shinning out when I read you did not know the child I could hardly believe it. Read your profile and like what you aim to do with art. If it is ok with you I will follow your blog with interest.
