Hi Marina
I didn't think you would like it becouse you are realistic and everybody here doesn't seem to appreciate impressionism very much.
Ciao
Adriano

Adriano,

It IS my favorite form of art.

Check out my "Alicia Blue" . "Green Dakini" in Unveilings for the Professional" and "Dakini" in Nude Unveilings.

I don't mean to push my own work, but these pieces were much inspired by impressionism.They may not be what you were thinking, but they were the best I could do.

Also check out Linda Brandon's work.

Hi Carlos
I think that charcoal and sanguine require no technique at all !
Just the use of your finger!
You can do any painting you want from the photo.
Ciao

Adriano,
I think I like it because -1: It's beautiful, -2: I'm not able to do the same. Even when I decide to work in a loose style, I always finish doing thin details...So I really admire what seems to be very difficult for me.
