Samantha




This is a portrait of Samantha, a beautiful little jewel. I call this a portrait vignette. It has a more spontaneous quality than a fully realized portrait which I felt was perfect for portraying her. At the same time I was able to resolve the subtle modeling of her face. I have included a couple of enlargements.

There was no preliminary drawing. I just started drawing with fairly transparent paint on a canvas toned with a thin umber coat.
