Work in Progress - Fashionista-a-month?


In addition to compiling old things, I am painting new things, I swear. To prove it, here is a painting I started today.  I am also working on a portrait of a friend at a protest that I may post later.  The above painting has been quite a challenge.  Sometimes when I start with a white canvas I feel as if I've forgotten everything I ever learned.  Today was one of those days. My palette is a piece of glass covered in mud and I just had to walk away.  I think it is an OK start.


A quick note about this young woman, she is always willing to pose for me, both in support of my art and well, her own self-proclaimed vanity!  She is fantastic.  Every artist should have shamelessly vain friends!  She and my sister are my two main models and someday I will have to do compilation posts for each of them.  (Yay! I love cataloguing.)

Thank you LK! You are absolutely lovely inside and out.
