Hi everyone,
This is my most recent painting finished last week. It will be my second entry into the Indiana State Fair. It's oil on linen and measures 36" X 24". I've been mounting my linen onto panels and for this particular one I cradled the back.
My model for this painting is my next door neighbor. She is a young (very young) mother and thankfully agreed on the spot to model for me at very short notice. I took the reference photos just an hour before sunset in order to get that warm light.
As I was painting this I kept thinking about the look in her eyes. I thought she might be dreaming of a place where someday she will be able to take care of her family on her own and not with extended family members all around.
Thanks,
Julie
