First of a series of portraits - Cynthia

"Cynthia" 7 in X 5 in, oil on canvas board 2011

I started a series of women who will be depicted as women from ancient times, namely Bibilical.  The reasons will be revealed at a later date.  This is a portrait of a Cynthia and it is officially done.  I took many photographs of her in my studio with the beautiful side natural light.  I have lined up several more women who have agreed to model for me.

I adore doing portraits - they take an enormous amount of time and the process is very different from my color fields.  Both have their frustrating moments as well as  glorious ones.
