Kay

DEBRA

Here is the third portrait in my patterned series, my friend Kay.  I was so excited to paint her portrait because I found the perfect Amy Butler fabric that just felt like Kay - Ivory/lotus pond from Faded China Lotus Collection.  I went through the usual ups and downs of loving and hating the painting in various stages, and though I'm finished the piece, I'm not sure if I ended on a "love it" plateau.  Maybe its in the lips...

Here's the step-by-step

I like seeing the step-by-step process on how you got to the finished process. I've never seen anything quite like that. I really like the intenseness of her face.
