Artist's Comments

This is a first for me.
Going back and redoing and existing painting. Eep!

OK first of all for those who haven't this is the first attempt.

Based an image [link] the beautiful and talented was kind enough to let me paint.
So why do it again? A number of reasons.
First of all after having so much fun with the dark background in pastels, I thought I'd see what difference it made wiht oils. So I could tell what difference it made more easily, I used an image I'd done before to compare.

Secondly I allways thought it would look better round this way. I'm not sure if it really does, but there you go.

You are a very skilled painter my friend. Nice work! I hope your getting your dues, an artist with a hand such as yours deserves it.

Loved the slide show! I'm not fond of oils, too messy and too much prep for me, but I love the look!! Personally, though, I like the pastel better.

It's a lot more realistic this time around. And softer-looking. It's so beautiful.
