Her Majesty

Sold

"Her Majesty" is one of my favorite little models, Vivi.  She is a joy to paint and is kind enough to model for me frequently.

I always enjoy seeing works in progress.  As I painted this portrait I took periodic photos to chronicle my work.  In the next couple of days I will post how "Her Majesty" came to be.

    She just looks so cute sitting there with her bare feet.

    It's wonderful Maria! Do you paint from life versus photo? I couldn't do it - you know how slow I am!

    What a beautiful portrait. She is so sweet with her crown and wand. I think you really captured her spirit. Great job.
