Hearkening




This is kind of a different subject for me -- she's in her mid nineties.

This will be a treasure for her family. I also think the soft lighting you used is perfect for this subject.

I keep being pulled in to look at her face, Terri. You have managed her expression and her skin wonderfully well and I love the carefully painted soft edges. Congratulations!

Terry,

Just lovely.

Frontal lighting is just perfect for 'ladies of a certain age'. It is difficult to paint because of its subtlety, but you have handled it beautifully.
