Double portrait
This is my latest commission, on linen, 80x80 cm.
I have been struggling with the the photo a lot, despite following all the indications on the forum. I will try again !
Anyway: I worked a lot on this painting, it was started from a photo and completed with several live sittings. The little girl on the left was a real earthquake and she just would not sit. I have tried to render her energy by painting her slightly blurred. I still have a few details to work on: I need to indicate her foot better,I want again to paint it as if it was moving. I also must check better that little finger on the right hand, plus I will draw her shoulder more carefully, perhaps cut off a bit of her jacket.
Any comment or critique is welcome: I still have a couple of days to work on it !
