It wasn't until I took out a piece of charcoal and started sketching that I even could see a face in the canvas. A layer of gesso and then paint and last night she began to take shape.
I still wasn't sure I liked the look of her. This morning I sat with her, just staring at her...getting to know her a little better. This afternoon, I picked up the brushes again and now...I think she is done. I will sit with her for a little while to be sure... I don't even have a name for her. She was that much of a surprise. She feels like peacefulness and early thoughts of Spring to me...
well, she looks lovely and so serene! Great job~
ReplyDeleteoooh yea, she does make me think of early thoughts of spring! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteShe has beautiful eyes! And I like your blog makeover and new header!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that so funny how someone will just show up when your painting and your like, "Who are you?" She does look like a Spring Angel!

Kelly, your blog is delightful! You are abviously well-read and yes, you and your beautiful family make your parents proud. It's obvious my brother Thom continues to shine his light through you and your art. I look forward to more postings as a way of keeping the Donovan spirit even closer.
