This is a recent commission I painted of a darling 5 year old girl. It’s 24″x36″ oil on linen canvas.
Below is a close up of this sweet girls face. I framed it in a 5″ traditional gold frame for the client.
Her dress was fun, I pulled out a couple of my John Singer Sargent books to study how he painted fabric. That was very helpful. And that big bow! I could paint bows all day long.
Dear Anonymous, thank you for your very kind words!

Just beautiful Joan! You do such lovely work! Also, loved seeing and hearing about your trip! Makes me wanna go there!
Beautiful!!!! Must be stunning at that size!
Dear Denise and Diane, thank you both for your compliments. With the 5″ frame it’s pretty large! Glad you liked hearing about the trip too.

It has a real Sargent feel to it Joan, it’s not just the fabric, it’s the mood. What an impact this must make “in the flesh”.
Hermoso color, un retrato estupendo.
