After my last post, I continue to create without the restraints, or constraints of painting for some one else, and I can say that I feel like a weight has been lifted. I even sold a painting out of the blue, with another possible sale pending. I now have an abundance of new ideas, many beautiful models to work with, and even new devices which are making my life easier!
I am now painting from my monitor, as I mentioned previously, and I also received an ipad2 as a gift from my husband. (I must say, once you get used to enlarging images with a tap of your fingers, a pc seems a little confining...lol) As the world gets "smaller", the access to art (and everything else) around the world is mind boggling! In a good way of course.
I thought I would post another painting in progression, because, once again, it is not yet finished...I feel that with this painting I have crossed some imaginary line, and my work is getting better. This is my newest model. She is not only a natural model, but she has an "Eastern European" look to me, that also reminds me of a model from the late 1800's or the early 1900's. Like a JW Waterhouse or Alphonse Mucha model....
