Linda's artwork

I'll post new pieces here as I paint them. I hope others will do the same and start their own threads in the Art Cafe! :)

That is a wonderful portrait! I love your use of light on the subject!

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

Oh wow...this is so amazing.  You did a fabulous job and I'm sure this will be cherished by Martin.

Thank you, Jane! You have no idea how much your artwork inspires me...  Every time I see you post something new I say, "Look at how beautiful her work is! I need to practice more!!!" hahaha!

That's the same thing I always say about you, Linda.  I showed Charlie this painting and he was very impressed.  We made another canvas of the painting of him and his father has it by his bed and loves it as we do.  Each day as we walk out of our bedroom, we get to look at your painting.  You are amazing!  So glad to see that you have a new click on your website for commissioned portrait paintings.  I may take you up on it again.

Aw, thank you so much Lynda! I'm so happy that you and your husband and your father in law are all so pleased with it! You've made my day! (big smile)

Wow, this is simply stunning. Haven't looked at your discussion here for a while. I'm amazed all over again at how talented you are.

[Linda and "Toby"]

Aw, thank you Jarka!  You're so sweet! I just updated my Corel Painter software to Painter 2017. It's giving me the itch to work on a new project! Now, if I could just find a way to squeeze in the time to do it.... lol!

I've had the privilege and pleasure of working on two more "memorial" portraits.

This one was particularly fun and challenging because I had to colorize a BW photo (taken over 60 years ago) first, and then paint it.
