Oblivious-New York Lady

This is my contribution to this week's DPW Challenge. It wsa hosted by the fine artist, Linda Popple.
I really enjoy this weekly challenge. It forces me to paint an extra piece each week. Plus I enjoy jumping in to paint from an unfamiliar picture with a hurry-up deadline. Actually, the DPW Challenge doesn't impose a deadline...I self impose it to get it done within that week. It's like flying (or painting, Lol) by the seat of your pants.
It is great fun to see the various solutions these fine artists come up with!

  3. I liked your version of her so much, challenges help you to grow, forcing you to perform out of your comfort zone. Yes, a self dead line is a must for discipline.

  5. Dean...this is a very "real" painting. Makes one "feel" what she is feeling. You've done a great job on it.
