Paint Party Friday

This week I will share two pieces with you, The first is a live-size painting of my daughter (WIP)
She had dressed up a bit just for fun and then I got an idea for a challenge with a group on Facebook: A person with a hat, carrying a parcel and a suitcase.

Here is my contribution:


Still a lot to work on, getting the proportions in order and giving her a lot more substance. She'll have to wait some time to get finished :-)

The other piece I want to share with you is a drawing, I'll give you a few progress photos:





Wish you all happy Easter and a Happy Paint Party Friday!

  10. Das Bild Deiner Tochter ist bereits jetzt sehr schön, liebe Ilona! Ich freue mich schon darauf, das fertige Bild zu sehen.
    Dein Schafbild ist der Hammer. Viele Schafbilder werden ja dem Original nicht so richtig gerecht. Bei Deinem Bild kann ich es atmen sehen :)
    Liebe Grüße zu Dir und ein frohes Osterfest!

  11. Your daughter's portrait is fantastic. I hope she appreciates it. Some kids do and some don't. The lamb portrait is wonderful. You are so talented.
