Saturday 24th May 2008 - Chrissie
I really enjoyed doing this painting! Chrissie has lovely colours in her skin and it was enjoyable to capture them. I don't normally bther with patterns or details on clothing, but I enjoyed putting in the embroidery on her blouse and I think it looks quite effective.
At the end, a fellow painter and I were saying how angelic she looked so I implied a halo with my fingernail to highlight that mood.
