Went back to the portrait today. Lightened the background, reshaped the mirror frame and added the beveled edge, began pulling individual hairs across the face. Added to the chintz pattern on the coat. Just plugging along.

An Atlanta native, I lived in northern California in the sixties, worked in front of the camera in Europe in the seventies, and earned my living as a writer for twenty plus years. As a contemporary realist painter, I'm fascinated by the skin of the world, the bounce and skitter of light on textures, and the push and pull of shadows on form. See my finished work on my website, www.virginiaparker.net and follow my works in progress here. I currently live 1.4 miles from the house I grew up in.
