This is Anne. She was a commissioned Christmas gift. I loved the composition of the photo reference and had to paint it. Thanks for looking and have a safe and Happy New Year!!

    1. Thanks Lynette. I am using Golden Opens on gesso panels. I think the Opens are thin and the panel has a smooth surface, all of which lends itself to the ability to blend and glaze.
