Flowers for Celina (Portrait as of Mar. 11, 2024)



Here is the portrait I am working on, as it looked yesterday.  I went over the body position, measuring the photo and then measuring the image on the canvas.  I made a lot of changes, the most noticeable to the position of her left arm.  I marked the changes with red conte crayon, just so I could see them. Then I used brown and white paint to make the changes more visible.  The red from the conte added a little color. I also measured the face (photo and canvas) and spent some time trying to get a likeness.  I am closer, but not there yet.  But that's okay.  I need to get the figure right first.  To be continued. . . .
