New project....

I've been really inspired to get back into oils lately and even more inspired to do some full portraits with said oils. So a new project is launched; one that concentrates on natural beauty, simplicity, and monochromatic colors. Hopefully I can get some models lined up for photos sometime soon. I've found that it's good for me to have something else happening artistically (whether it's a craft project, decorating project, or just a different style of artwork) in busy times like the holidays coming up. That way I don't feel totally overwhelmed or get burnt out from painting pop portraits back to back. So without further ado, here's the first in what (hopefully) will be a small series of paintings in this project!

Please note: It was incredibly difficult to get a good picture of this painting. The colors are actually more vibrant- a soft pink in the background that fades into her skin. But my camera just wasn't measuring up :(

I'm excited for the way it came together and am looking forward to what's next!

This is beautiful. Reminds of Mom's "Blue Nude" painting, with your attention to detail. You just keep getting better!
