8 x 10"oil on masonite

Back in December, I had short spans of hanging in limbo - in between working and waiting for the closing day of my business. I filled up those times with more of the 100 Faces, which kept me sane and limber and I painted this piece. This past November, I had painted this young woman in a plein-air event in Charleston - and I had this desire to paint her again, from a photograph - I was curious to see how different it would come out. It's also larger than the version I had done in the park that day, which gave me more space to improvise her surroundings. Nice and loose, just the way I love it.

ReplyDeleteThis is spectacular! I bet it wasn't as cold in your studio as it was in that park. Such good memories for me. Love this painting!
ReplyDeleteA truly wonderful painting Karin. I love it!
ReplyDeleteLove the painting; could you show your plein air painting of this woman? It would indeed be interesting to see your differences. Also which work did you like better?
