My Newest Painting



I met this woman at the market place where she was selling squash.  I asked her permission to photograph her, and despite the fact that the photo was posed, she looked completely natural.  A born model, I guess!  I've made a few adjustments to the painting since this photo.  For instance, you'll notice that the collar length in the right hand bottom corner is not the same as the opposite collar.  Oops!  Glad I noticed that in time to shorten it!  My next painting is a landscape.  You may recognize the scene from the photo I posted on our arrival at the Origins retreat center.
