My first painted piece that I am actually proud of. I spend ages on completing this one and while there might be bits and pieces I'm thrilled about - overall I like it.
I think my main problem is I prefer to see results right away - so while I don't mind working on details, they shouldn't take too long to finish. The second piece I've been working on is going to take a while. I can't seem to get it quite right so for now it's just sitting on my computer, waiting to be finished.

ReplyDeleteThese portraits are fabulous. Both are so beyond what I could ever achieve. It's so inspiring and your talent shines through these gorgeous images. Spending a lot of time perfecting them, obviously pays off.

I have read the books and thought they were brilliant... but I haven't seen the series yet. I suppose I'm bothered that they might not live up to book.
Thank you for sharing and congrats on being PPF's choice for this week.
She's lovely and he's looking good as well!
ReplyDeleteLovely job!! & so synchronous - at our Red Thread Circle last night, one of the women brought up Outlander & shared a bit of the story line - she'd love this!
