Oil on canvas, 24" x 30"
This is the biggest painting I have done to date and also the
fastest, at least by the calendar. It was a present for my
sister-in-law's birthday so I worked on it more regularly than
the usual creations in art class.
The photograph I worked from was somewhat overexposed so I had
to use my imagination as far as lights and shadows. I think it
turned out quite well, all things considered.
There are some shiny areas on the photograph from the flash
reflecting off of areas where I mixed the paint with glazing
medium, giving that silvery look. In real life, those areas
look like the rest of the painting.
