Little Girl Drawing - original charcoal portrait drawing

I just had to capture this little girl as she drew.  She was totally involved in what she was doing - aren't all artists that way!  It's always great to have a bit of charcoal handy - you just never know.  This little drawing is about 8 x 6 1/2".  Thanks so much for stopping by!

"Beginnings" - original oil figurative painting

SOLD

She was all business as she began what was to be her sand construction. Nothing distracted her - may she always have that quality!

This painting is one that I did from a quick drawing, plus, as is almost always the case with children, a photo.

Oil on panel, it's 7 x 5".

Thanks for stopping by!

My apologies to subscribers, as I changed some of the foreshortening a little - hope you didn't get multiple emails!

Letting Go - original oil figurative painting

This little girl spent more time watching her balloon than she did playing with the other children at the party. I was really surprised when she let it go. She stood transfixed as she saw it drift over the treetops and off into the distance. I watched it, too.

Oil on panel, this painting is 7 x 5". Thanks so much for stopping by!

Sleeping Child - original oil pastel painting

This oil pastel was done from life on green 5 x 7" Pastelbord. I wanted to preserve the drawing quality of the piece, so the entire support isn't covered. Since it was done from life, I had a limited amount of time until she awoke from her nap. I did only what was absolutely necessary to portray a sleeping little girl.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog!
