Charlie and the Golden Gate Bridge
12" x 15" Watercolor
Linda Young, artist |
After making Charlie's hair darker, deepening creases in shirt and warming up his skin tones, I'm going to stop for now. Driving to Pennsylvania from New Jersey, the clients' came to our house yesterday to look at the painting as it has progressed to this point and they liked it a lot. That made me happy! They said it looks just like him. After that, we all went out to eat at "The Fiddler's" restaurant in Carlisle.
What's next? After allowing the portrait painting to sit for a few days, I will look at it again with fresh eyes and work on the finishing touches.
