This is an oil painting that I did in oil pastel a couple of years ago. Although I sold the oil pastel version, I still have the life drawing and since I love the pose, I redid it in oil.
This model took great poses. She did have a little attitude, which I always find interesting, and I tried very hard to capture it.
I hope the painting has plenty of life - I always start out with loose strokes, but sometimes overwork the painting. There is such a delicate balance between loose and lively and tight and overworked. I find it hard not to step over the line.
It's 10 x 8" on board. Thanks for stopping by Hackberry Street Studio! Sold

I like this pose and the color. I especially like the cool of her stomach.
Wonderful painting. I like the loose strokes. You did catch an attitude.
