This is Lanice. The reference photo is of my granddaughter's girlfriend... Lanice is what I always look for in a model. Although I'm not into piercing, I left the nose ring in because this is who she is... I used Rembrandt and Terry Ludwig pastels for this portrait...
Buen trabajo, me gusta su expresión y el color de la piel.

ReplyDeleteBravo pour ce très joli portrait. J'aime ce regard un peu perdu dans ses pensées...

DeleteHilda wat is dit weer mooi
ReplyDeleteZo levensecht super gedaan lieve groetjes Daniëlle
Thank you SO much for your lovely comment Danielle!! I appreciate it!!!!
DeleteShe has a kind and lovely face but wonder how her mother felt about the ring being in place - wonder if she asked!LOL.
ReplyDeleteThe piercing is what will place the period of time this was done for future historians.
Same as Sargent's clothes on his affluent women!
Have a fabulous week, Hilda
Thank you so much Ash!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI have wondered myself whether her Mom approves. She's a pretty girl and doesn't need piercing so I hope it's a fad..lol. ... However, I truly enjoyed painting her ...now I'd like to paint a still life?? Sending hugs!!!

DeleteBuscando tu respuesta a mi comentario, acabo de descubrir que no salió en el blog (?)
ReplyDeleteBueno, te decía que me gustó mucho este retrato y que al pintarlo te arriesgaste mucho con ese piercing que lleva la niña en la nariz. Te decía también que en cierta ocasión dibujé a una niña en el tren y llevaba un aro en su nariz. Como no pude borrarla, me quedó algo muy feo y lamentable a la vista...
A ti te ha quedado muy bien y muy guapa.
Un abrazo.
gracias por tu encantador comentario Josh. Siempre eres tan amable. Llevar un anillo en la nariz a algunas personas es una forma de arte. Vengo de la "vieja escuela" donde no llevabas un anillo en la nariz. JeJe ... Sin embargo, fue una alegría pintar y es una chica tan agradable. Enviando abrazos
ReplyDeletelovely girl, beautiful portrait which no doubt made her happy. You captured something mysterious in her expression - makes me keep looking at her eyes. Great job, Hilda!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice comment Rosemary!!! Thank you!!! She was a pleasure to paint and I'm glad you liked it!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done, Hilda, and I'll bet Lanice is thrilled!
