Languor (closeup)
This is a portion of a large figurative painting I've been working on for a while. (I'm thinking of adding a section for "Figurative Painting" in my website.) This was painted from a photo taken under natural north light from high windows.
Oil on panel (ABS mounted to masonite), 48" x 30".
Marvin, no cadmiums were injured or killed during the course of this painting.

Having been previously titillated with the full composition, I can report that it is fabulous. To my eye, every component is well thought out and wonderfully executed.
Linda,
I'm also thinking of adding your figuratives to a new section on my web site.

Linda, this is absolutely wonderful. You have captured great life in the eyes. Of course I want to see the entire piece. I might have to pay a "happened to be in the neighborhood" visit to your studio soon....
Sincerely,

Linda,
This is simply stunning! I eagerly await a link to view the whole composition. Maybe we should all join a chorus and congratulate you in unison!
