Self Portrait in Silver, pastel 12x16

 
 $650. unframed/ $800.doubled mat and frame
 
I had such a good time setting up this still life and didn't realize until I really got into it and started playing with the reflections, that it was a self portrait. Someone suggested I call it, "Pitcher of Susie".

Red Lipstick, oil, 18x24

 
Here's what's on my easel this week.  I started this last month and am excited to find the time this week to work on it.  One of my favorite models, Amelea, is wearing a satin robe that my mom wore in the 1940's.  I played dress up in it as a child , but it somehow has remained in perfect condition, and a "prop" that's near and dear to my heart!
