This painting was done just for fun. I loved the pose and the light and HAD to paint this immediately. Photo was done by myself and the model is my best girl friend.
It is painted with transparent watercolors on Textured Claybord (Aquabord), size is 8″x10″.
I have decided for a title: “With the sunshine in her hair” fits perfect to this watercolor painting.
Just found your site, Doris and I wanted to tell you how I love your portraits. I too am a watercolor artist with young children, but I haven’t painted them much…yet! Your paintings have a luminescent quality that is beautiful!
I came across your website through an extensive search through the Google Search Engine. In other words, I have no idea how I finally clicked on your link. I have been practicing portrait and this painting took my breath away! If I hadn’t known, I would have sworn this was my daughter! Your work is amazing and rouching at the same time. Hopefully I can follow in your footsteps.
Doris,
Your painting continue to awe and inspire me. I love seeing them. Do you have a DVD out?
