AQUARELLA AND INK - 7 X 10 INCHES LITTLE SISTER ON STRATHMORE PAPER |
Elle est beaucoup plus jolie dans la vraie vie et non, ses yeux ne sont pas comme çà, c'est-ä-dire un grand et un petit. Ses lunettes ne sont pas rouges non plus, mais peut-être aura-t-elle le goût de s'en acheter maintenant. :)
It's my younger sister! Well, it's her and it's not her. I did a sketch with a graphite pencil and used watercolor without a fixative, so the painting would do its job. The problem is that some lines of the drawing got distorted. I had to come back with ink and work some details. I'm experimenting.
In real life, she is better looking and no, her eyes are not like this, one small and one large. Her reading glasses are not red, but maybe she should buy a new pair. :)

Coucou Helen, je savais bien que tu était douée pour les portraits..et bien oui j'en suis sûr maintenant.
Oui la technique est toujours à inventer selon les besoins du moment, l'instinct de l'Artiste à consolider un oeuvre, bravo Helen, je suis ravie de découvrir ainsi ta petite soeur, elle a vu ce portrait ? Tu me diras ça!
Bonne semaine à toi.
Gros bisous.
PS: pour répondre à ta question, non pas de régime, mais la diète est de rigeur, hahaha!
this is a great painting!!!
Dear Helen - what an amazing painting...I think portraits have to be so difficult to do. Your little sister looks like someone special. Thanks Helen for sharing. Hope you are having a great start to January.
Bonjour Cath! Non , ma soeu n'a rien vu encore. Je suis vraiment au stade expérimental. Diête sévère ici , ma chère. Bisous
Thanks Myra! I really need to practice more. Demanding but fun !
Thanks Debbie! My baby sister is real sweet. January is the longest month of the year, don't you think? And this Challenge of Leslie Saeta is keeping me busy. But I can't complaint, nobody twisted my arm. Take care.

Hi Helen, I'm catching up on all your posts. You are doing excellent work, love all the beautiful colors. Great portrait of your sister, portraits are always hard! Keep up the great work!
I think she is beautiful Helen and I can see the resemblance in the two of you.
Hi Cathy, glad you like it!
Thyanks for the encouragement Celia! A big hug!
Hi Sherry! I love doing portrait though I find it demanding. I need to practice my drawing much more. Happy day to you
It doesn't matter if it is "life like" because you made it lively.
You did a wonderful portrait of your sister, Helen!!! Portraits are challenging but fun!!!
Thanks for your visit Maggie!
Thanks Hilda! It makes me realize the time and energy you put in your own paintings. Very exciting! :)
