The model’s eyes are so expressive. I remember when she was a just a baby. Now she has grown into such a lovely young lady. This painting evolved from several ideas. I have been wanting to work with extreme lighting again and I found my chance with this one. I have to admit, “I hate painting white tee shirts!” This was a grand challenge for me. I am glad I can scratch that off of my rather long list of “Things I Hate Painting but Should Probably Try.” I actually do have this list and I can honestly say I have scratched three things off since I began daily painting.
5"x7" acrylic on hardboard I found the figure before I found the painting. Real woman have curves! I could have called this one most women have curves or big bones. I actually like big bones most, but I was afraid some people would be offended. Some of you may have noticed this painting has changed a little bit from the original post earlier today. This is because I am one of those people that never seems to finish a painting even when it's finished. I completely repainted the wall which was a bluish white on my original post and the floor is now brown instead of white. I hope my obsession works. Something that looks great to me may seem off to others. (I know this works both ways). In the end, four hours of painting later I am glad I made the changes. SOLD
