Painting

I did this painting for a friend. She asked me if I could do a 'tasteful nude' that she could hang on the wall at home. I hope I did her justice.

The painting is watercolour, and pastel chalk on Ingres paper and the original is about 24" x 16". Just another thing that I'm interested in. I only do two or three paintings a year, and the driving factor is always an interest in the subject matter. The female nude being a favourite for obvious reasons!

It would have been nice to have the time, space and inclination to make this interest a full time occupation, but there are so many other things that interest me, I just couldn't devote the time and energy required.

If I get around to it I may post some of my other paintings on here.
