This is my painting done in portrait class with Ann Feldman. This is oil on a canvas sheet that is 16" square. It is painted from a photo of a painting done by renown artist Harley Brown. The link is to a site that shows one of his recent publications of a painting done in pastel of another little Indian girl.
I have not finished the background, and may also need to make some little value changes around her mouth, but I am pretty happy with this exercise. I am posting this for Paint Party Friday. Have a good week everyone, and take the time to visit other artists' sites. For yourself, do more art!
Excellent 'rendition' ~ love her ~ (A Creative Harbor)
