inally got around to painting the last of the angels...thought I would show you the faces as Meredith was asking whether I copied them from anywhere...I paint them from my head, making them up as I go along.....great fun especially when there is all the chaos of the weekend activities going on all around me in the kitchen!
THEY ARE ALL SOOO EXPRESSIVE AND DIFFERENT ISNT IT AMAZING WHAT A FEW STROKES OF PAINT IN THE HAND OF AN EXPERT CAN DO!!!! YOU ARE A MIGHTY TALENTED WOMAN DANIELLE AND I WOULD HAVE LIKED SITTING AT YOUR KITCHEN TABLE IN THE MELEE WATCHING YOU PAINT!

the third one could be Fran - really....
ReplyDeleteand the fourth has Finlay's eyes....beautiful...
missing you so much - I have been way too busy here.
hope that the storm didn't blow you away or bury you completely in the snow and ice - couldn't believe the news - wow!
xo
Totally agree with Di... these beautiful, contemplatively wistful and compassionate faces come from your head!! I thought maybe you'd look at a magazine for the expression and paint your interpretation... SO talented.
ReplyDeleteDanielle!!!
ReplyDeleteYou should sell these beautiful characters on Etsy,
I think!!!
I would probably buy them ALL:)
Much love
Becky
Hear Hear Becky, spot on.
ReplyDeleteThey are so beautiful I keep returning for another look. Danielle you could concede to marketing pressure and do some owls to lubricate your etsy-cred :) Owls with real faces oooo.
Much as you love textiles and multies of materials to work with Danielle, this IS an avenue of lucrativity for you for sure. The brush and the water colour, and all the magnificent characters inside your head, within your chaotic household. Let them out - that's how we got Harry Potter ;)
