Love the color and the shadows on the face. You have a wonderful eye and technique.

I was born a redhead...now it's silver threads among the gold!!

Keep sharing you work...I love it!

Good morning, dear Wanda, and a warm welcome to you once again.

This particular young lady has beautiful copper-coloured red hair which is so striking it is her crowning glory.

Her skin is pale and delicate-looking so it was difficult to find shadow on it.

I used glitter for her earrings and the jewel in her nose :)

I always wanted titian locks. I'm afraid when I acquired them it was courtesy of the hair salon.
She is lovely, thank you for sharing her with us.

Good morning to you, dear Sheila. I admired the wonderful colour of the model's hair too...very Titian, as you say. Thanks for your lovely comments :)

You are very kind, like Sheila, to comment on two of my blogs, dear Sandy. Thank you for encouraging my efforts :)

Wanda said...

May I be so bold to ask, if you are not too busy with the holiday, could you post another painting!
Love what you do...and can't wait till you post another one.

The build-up to the Christmas Season when all our family came to stay and other little projects since the turn of the New Year have taken up all of my time and left me none for blogging, or painting, lately, Dear Wanda. I must try to remedy that situation ASAP. Thank you for your patience and your valuable comments which help to inspire me :) I wish you happy gardening and happy painting this New Year :)

Thank you for this information, Adam Brown. I will investigate it shortly.

Well it just goes to show that I have not been visiting this blog a for a wee while...17Jan to be precise and it's April Fool's Day today :)

Thank you Becky, Jeanne, Lisa and Sandy for your compliments about my paintings :)

She is beautiful. I wonder what she is thinking.

A wildlife gardener said...

Good morning, Sandy, and a warm welcome to you :)

Although she is a seasoned artist's model, she was a little nervous that morning. She reminded me of the beautiful women that Titian and the Raphaelites painted :)
