Lexie's Despair - original figurative oil painting



The inspiration for this painting was my model, Lexie, taking this pose with her face in the sofa pillow.  It appeared that she was in despair, as if things just hadn't worked out for her.  (And maybe she was tired of posing?  Could that possibly be?)  Thanks so much for stopping by!
