Finished Painting, “DANCING” and My Painting Process |

This week I finished the dancing Fae painting that I have been working on for a few months. She is dancing among the mushrooms. Being a big fan of one word titles, I named this painting, “Dancing.”

DANCING, 30″ x 20″, Acrylic on canvas.

I had a lot of fun painting a curvy redhead. I wasn’t sure what color her hair was going to be when I began the painting, but as I painted, her hair just got redder and redder. Hmm… wonder if I was looking in the mirror. 🙂

This is the original drawing from my sketchbook.

Here are a few pictures of the progress of the painting.
