A Quiet Moment.......

 A Quiet moment alone...

After initially only using Safina's face to for my two previous works, I thought I would paint the photo as is. There are a few things I would change about this on, but on the whole am pleased with it. It's amazing how you can be inspired by one photo, taking it further, creating a different piece each time. A lot of thanks go to my teacher Lisa Ivory for unlocking my creativity again. I still have more idea for this one..

Stephie, I like all three works from the picture of your grand-daughter, but this is my favorite. I love the colors and the whites that you have kept. This painting tells a story!

Beautiful work as always.

Lovely painting!
Great when one reference gives you so many options - and you are making excellent use of them :)

Christiane....Thank you....Seems a few people like this one the best...

Thanks Pat...I think it's just really looking and seeing, instead of the whole pic in front of you...Where my recent class really helped..
