I almost forgot to post this week's portrait from my SBAA group. This is Dot, the mother-in-law of one of the artists I paint with. I think I made her look a bit younger than she really is, but I don't think she minded at all. This is about 5 x 7.
Dot is beautifully painted! Sometimes, when I paint a portrait, I make the person look older!! This is not good!! I love your previous painting that you took in Middletown, NY. Excellent piece!!!, Joan.

ReplyDeleteShe is a beauty, Joan. Oh to have hair like that!
ReplyDeleteHilda - Thanks so much. I like the change of scenery up there. I tend to make children look older and older people look younger in portraits.
ReplyDeleteSherry - Thanks. Maybe yours will grow in that way.
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!! HOW winsome you do people's faces, Joan -- I am so proud of the work you do!!! BRAVA again!
