| Lia with Mollie in Blue - a study click to enlarge |
I know, I know - you saw Lia and Mollie last post. I painted another version - it's helpful to use the same subject to play with different approaches and styles. Yesterday was the actual setting - the bushes and deck. But there are so many ways to paint a subject... from photo-realistic (which I don't do but admire) to totally abstraction ( something I do rarely). This is somewhere along that continuum. The darker areas of the background are the dark shadows in the little bush behind them; the light is where the sun was hitting the outer leaves. An added plus -knowing your subjects makes for some fun painting. If you prefer one over the other... let me know.
