I had a great day yesterday having lunch with friends and catching up, then came home and I just had to paint. Something someone said to me produced this image in my head that I'm painting. I wanted to paint another one of my girlies for a while now, I think of these as my paintings, ones that I'll keep and am reluctant to sell, but who knows.
I create the girls differently to my othered layered paintings but she still has ended up with a moustache due to a dark mark on a layer below the skin...
She is just a work in progress at the moment...I wanted her to have magnificent auburn/copper hair flying everywhere but I've created a leaf on the left hand side that may have to disappear slightly for that to happen. I love her dress all brightly coloured too but I'll tone that down with a transluscent colour that I've not yet decided on.....I would like her to be different to my Lady Flora painting so I don't want her to have the same colour dress...the face is always tricky and I hate to add more paint as the blending is very difficult though she will need eyelashes and a tear drop...
She Let Love Go - a work in progress....
Here's a link to the finished painting She Let Love Go.
I love her. love the colors and the dimensions of her. Can hardly wait to see her hair too!
