Orchard Dawn ~ 12x12 ~ Acrylic

It's been a while.... I just jumped in yesterday. That's how I have to go about it when it's been a while...

It's easiest to leap if I start on top of a painting that didn't work out...and that explains the strange textures here and there.

"Precious" ~ 4x4 Acrylic, fabric, stitching

Any "No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency" fans out there? While she doesn't really resemble Mma Precious Ramotswe... she reminds me of her. Here's more about the series if you're interested...
I'm still having fun with these teeny tiny made up portraits... I'll have to do some manly angels soon, I think.

She seems so sweet to me.... and not just because of her halo.

Norah....see the shiny bits?

Norah ~ Acrylic, fabric, stitching

I slopped some hair color onto the pristine white paper background... so I decided to try colored backgrounds to cover up my mess. I like it! I stitched the wings and then painted some iridescent medium on them.
It's interesting to me that they seem to develop personalities as I refine their features.

Having fun with these....Trying to figure out how to frame them to their best advantage.
