Suddenly out of nowhere comes this urge to get back to painting and going out on a limb (that means No Flowers .
I've always liked painting people, women mostly , lets face it . they're prettier.. so I did a couple 30 minute ... ok ok 40 min.. w/c sketches, wanted to stay loose, I think I did just that . drips and drops and all... BJ
I think they are lovely - Is the top one a self portrait? That red hair is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandra, the hair COULD have been mine 20 years ago.. !!! and the eyes COULD have been my mothers.. Somehow I missed out on that combination darn it!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat sketches! I love them!
ReplyDeleteYou are in a great frame of mind, Barbra! You are discovering things. It is a new freedom you will do well at, it already shows in your paintings!
ReplyDeleteVery nice sketches, BJ. You've captured her hair beautifully in the first one!
ReplyDeleteIs the top portrait you, my friend? She is beautiful! I love how you've handled that bottom one too, unique and lovely rolled into one. Great work, BJ!
ReplyDeleteLove them, Barbra! I'm so jealous! Wish I could sketch like that.
ReplyDeleteNo, neither is me, just both a figment of my imagination, and an inspiration of another artist whose style I admire ...
ReplyDelete! Top one could have been me 20 years ago. but no Sherry, NOT! BJ
They're great! Hope you continue with portraits :)
ReplyDeleteLoose and lovely! You achieved your purpose...and I love the drips!
