Artist's Comments

Oil on canvas, 120 cm X 90cm. Aprox. 100 hours.

Portrait of Karen, this was going to be my entry in the trad art day contest, but I just didn't get it finished in time try as I might.
The blue took me FOREVER. ugh.
Photo a bit grainy, but you get that I guess.
Will put a WIP slideshow up at some point, wee bit tired right now.
:bounce: a DD! hooray!
Much love and thanks to sbaraci and stigmatattoo :D
Also to Karen for modeling, inspiration, putting up with my bitching about painting blue for 2 weeks, and feeding and watering me during the project.
Oh and also for being by my side through the good and bads :love:
Daily Deviation, 2007-11-16

Daily Deviation"...he is one of masters of female nudes, painting them frail, and romantic, as if they were dream, seductive and shy, as well as complex as women tend to be. I just love the way he treats the cloth, the folds giving it amazing depth and volume as it wraps around the body and head, it flows and changes as the life itself does. It is complex, filled with contemplation and sadness, it is made with love, not only for painting itself but also for his partner."

A wonderful piece, if I was not a poor starving artist I would offer to buy her.
