Fainting
Oil on Canvas, 20x16"
Our group painting studio has had a three week hiatus. We just resumed our regular sessions today. This had been quietly drying in the racks for the whole time. This model is tiny, about 4'11'' with dainty features. I think for that reason she was very challenging to paint. It's the second time encountering her. The results of the first encounter is here.
She is reclining here as she was before. This time on the fainting couch. I know she does not look as she has just fainted but it seems appropriate to the studio prop used.
I struggled so long with her facial features I didn't give other elements adequate attention. The details of the hand and the modeling of her breast do not have quite the same finish. Oh well! Maybe next time.
You always come up with a great combination of model and background.
