I can feel the sunshine coming. It has been beautiful weather lately and I am so excited for summer. This is a painting of my Mom. It looks like she is enjoying a quiet moment to herself - in reality she was actually watching 6 or more kids climb and jump over the groin she is sitting on. How she remains so calm during all the craziness I'll never know. I guess that is what makes her such a great teacher.
Cheers to you Mom!
I am not sure if my original comment got to you so I will post again and you can remove if you need to. I first wish to thank you for the comments you made on my blog. Means much to me when I see the work you do. I so ove textured art and yours is marvellous. Your mother sounds great and here you show here as she is and it is just great.
ReplyDeletewhat a beautiful painting! I love those cool blues! refreshing colors.
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely Tammy. I especially like her dress and legs. Painted wonderfully. So good to have you back ; )
ReplyDeleteJust Beautiful. The soft blue of her dress stands out so well, even with all of the blues around her. I think the composition works so well, that the eye goes where it is supposed to. It is very contemplative looking. Is it a Mother's day gift?
ReplyDeleteWonderful solidity to the form, Tammy...great values too!
ReplyDeleteTammy, this is my favorite yet. You've captured something so timeless, so serene here. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love the serene quality of this. After hearing a little bit about your Mom, it feels even more so. Great job on the figure and composition!
ReplyDeletesuch a sweet and soft painting....calmness yes...I imagine you captured her well!
ReplyDeleteTammy this is wonderful - love the colors and the composition - she does look calm.
ReplyDeleteI've started a new blog - palette knife painters - I'd love to have to join to post on it - please email me :)
