Hello hivers, an happy Sunday to you all!
It's a warm sunny Sunday here and my furry friends are really happy to enjoy the warm weather in my backyard. Later I will go outside for a long relaxing walk with my hubby, but this morning I worked on the last touches to a painting I started yesterday.
A couple of days ago I shared with you an exercise I made studying a painting by the famous french painter Manet. It was a portrait of Berthe Morisot who was a painter and one of the favorite subject of Manet (you can see that exercise here). Working on that one an idea came into my mind about one of my usual caracters in the same shades of colors of that portrait, a sort of homage to Manet and Morisot. Yesterday I started the painting and I just finished that piece, so now I'm here to share with you the final result:
As you can see, this time (maybe for the first time in my artworks, I don't remember) I used a dark red on the background. The tiny house I painted on her head is similar to a one I see on a painting by Berthe Morisot.
It's an oil colors painting on 200 gsm paper in A3 size and, like I use to do , I took some pics while I was painting it so you can see the process too:
Soon I'll add this new artwork to my Artfinder shop (link at the bottom), hoping it will find a new home!
I hope you like it!
See ya soon and stay safe,
Silvia
