Sara - I know what you mean. You have always been an inspiration for me to get sparked and keep going. I did a quick one recently to get my juices flowing, Stellar Bride. Now I am working on my Norwegian friend and her daughter just for something different… no nude this time. You have a great start with this one. I look forward to the completion. Later from Tejas!

Aggie - THANKS for the kind words! Talk about inspiration :slight_smile:

#126

Coming along beautifully, Sara! Great to see!

#127

Thanks Ben - a good obejct is easy to paint;)

Here´s some more from today. Trying to give it as much intention that I possible can before the workweek:)

#128

A bit of a slow-down lately, too much work to do:)
But here´s an update on Ben. He´s almost finished, just gonna do the final touches.

#129

Gorgeous! He’s so smooth and well rendered. It’s beautiful work :slight_smile:

#130

this is absolutely fantastic Sara!:bounce:

Wow Sara that looks fantastic. I like you step by step your posting too. I haven’t touched my art in a week and I am feeling the need by reviewing your posts! Thanks!:smiley:

#132

Wow Sara. Can I admit I had been hoping somebody would take that pose and do it right/well? I think you have. It’s got a great feeling. The capture of the lighting, the bit of glow, it’s very, very good (my own admitted biases, notwithstanding, of course).

One question, if I may… I shared your latest image with a couple of friends of mine (and I hope that’s okay) and they indicated that they are potentially interested in a print of it, if they can afford it, and if you’d be interested in selling one… May I direct them your way?

#133

I( love the cheascake! very pretty pin-ups!

#134

I’ve got to agree with many of the posts here: I really like the progress you’ve had with Ben’s photo/pose. It’s coming along nicely.

#135

I’m sure Ben will be thrilled to see it

I think it’s one of the best Ben Miller studies I’ve seen lately!

#136

Thank you SO MUCH for all the kind words!
Here´s the finished piece

#137

This looks gorgeous. I hope you sell prints too. :slight_smile:

#138

Interesting that you are leaving it in B&W. Is there any reason?

#139

Here´s a start on the next painting of the same “subject” - Ben.

The last one is now available as a print over at deviantart.com, for those who are interested:)
