A Commissioned portrait by Eileen's husband. This was a

challenge since I don't do portraits very often.  Also

challenging with five people in the painting.

This is an attempt to paint my grandaughter, Ella's portrait
 in watercolor.  The photo I  worked from was
taken when she was three years old.  She is four now.
I always liked her wistful look.
Let me know what you think in the comments below.

" IN CONCERT "

24" x 30"

Oil on Canvas

Painted by Margie Whittington

A friend from high school which has been
forty+ years ago, asked me to do this portrait of
her when she was twelve years old at a piano recital.
The photo that the painting was done from was a black and
white with no color and some very dark areas.
She described the colors and the details of the photo and
this is what I painted.


It was a challenge and I am hoping my friend will be pleased
with the finished portrait.
Shhhh, she hasn't seen it yet. Her birthday is in August and I
think she has given up on me ever getting it finished.


A BIRTHDAY SURPRISE !
