You know you're doing a good job when no one can agree on an image. I like the first one, I know you've started on another, but, don't throw that first one away.

Great Photos

What a lovely girl and dress! I go for nos. 1 & 2. Number two reminds me of the pensive woman types of paintings that were so popular around the end/beginning of the last century.

Thanks Michele - I guess I am getting better.

I haven't thrown that first one away Mike. I actually sketched that one and another on canvas the day I started the one I posted in WIP. I don't know why I want to do three paintings of the same figure in the same costume... I know I will do the first one above, after that maybe it will be out of my system!

Thanks for looking all - this costume shop is a dream. I want to move in. Trying to decide what is timeless and classic is the thing. I keep trying to find things that can not exactly be dated.

I'd love to see the first one turned into a painting. I can imagine her catching water from a little waterfall or something. Of course this is obviously not what you had in mind, but I like to see a painting with water in it.

Matthew, I started that first one yesterday, so far so good. It will be with that flower though.
