Christina

Oil on Board, 7 " x 9.5 ", SOLD

I have been working on this image over a series of

years, actually, and am glad to have finally resolved

it. The contrast of her almost-black hair against the

turqoise background is something that has always

obsessed me, but I couldn't rectify the colors in her

face with the rest of the painting. I finally decided to

just "go with the flow", and I'm pretty happy with the

results, which aren't really true to life due to my

camera. Her face is really more colorful than this.

Oil over Grisaille on board

This is a portrait of a young woman who has modelled often

for my classes. She is incredibly talented in her own right,

being an actress with an incredible voice, and also, obviously

very beautiful. The color of her hair is what inspired me to do

thi s painting.
