Portraits


This is a portrait of Jeannine Marie Maddox in her weddingdress.   She seemed so young to be getting married,  (can you tell I thought so?)  But the painting was divine, if I do say so myself, especially in the details, and I had a hard time delivering it.  If it someday disapears from her home,  we will know where to look.
The portrait is actually quite large, and a circle of children are dancing around her, here you see only a few heads.

I love this painting. The movement in your strokes reminisces of Berthe Morisot, who happens to be one of my favorites.
