Been a While

This is a much better and accurate image of  "Madame". It was tough photographing it because of the high contrasts in the piece. Looks much better for sure!

 " Madame" oil on linen 6x6


" Lila" oil on linen 6x6


                      "Envy" oil on linen -SOLD


Well it has been a while and I finally have been able to get back to work! I am a little rusty but hopefully I will get back up to speed!

As you are one of my favorite painters Sandra, I'm so happy to see your return. I love these new pieces and as always, eagerly await your next postings.

So do I, and the word stunning isn't strong enough for "Madame." If I find a word that fits her effect I'll come back here and deliver it. I am TOtally in awe.

A relationship with " Blue Evening " of E Hopper in some of your paintings. Your work is very good.

Cheryl McCarley said...

I'm glad your back to painting (or maybe just back to posting)...I love your technique; these are wonderful!!

I tagged you for the "A Passion for Painting Award" because you are one of my favorite artists, and you are such an inspiration to me. If you want to do anything with it, the details are on my blog.

Madame is so very saucy and sassy.
I can heartily echo all the previous comments.
Your brushwork moves that paint to exactly the right spot. That headwrap- delicious.

So nice to see your newest- always worth waiting for.

Hello, Sandra
So beautiful, wonderful !!!, the best paintings that I have seen in years, I feel like an emotion similar to when I see to Mopdigliani or Hooper. Upon seeing it is as if the time stops.
Best regards.
José Luis
