I've put it off long enough. I have done all I'm going to do to the portrait of my friend Cathi's mom. This is from a totally candid photo taken of her a year or so ago. I liked the knowing look she is giving, like she has seen it all. I'm not sure if the portrait is finished, I just know that, for now anyway, I'm not going to do anymore on it. Maybe some day in the future I'll pick it up and decide that more needs to be done and I'll know what it is. Sometimes paintings are like that aren't they?
This is a nice rendering, but I know what you mean. I always want to finish my projects, but sometimes the results are so much better when I set them aside for awhile.
ReplyDeleteThis is really a nice portrait! And love the orchids.
