Female figure with child
 

Hello everyone,
This is a detail of a larger composition that I was asked to do for a church in Segovia, and which I finished last month. It is for a part of the church dedicated to the Holy Innocents, hence the theme. I was told that it had to have a traditional classical flavor. Oil on linen. Hope it can be viewed well. Thanks for viewing.

HI Carlos -

Looks good - Please don't tantalize us with just one detail - any chance of posting the whole thing?

The colors are very subdued on my monitor - I'm wondering if they are correct.

Carlos, i'm hooked to this image like fish on bait!
More..!more!
And i'm also having the same problem of washed out colors on my screen. Hope to see the actual image soon!

Thanks Julie, Marcus

Hi Carlos -

Thanks for sharing the full painting. Still looks a bit grayed down, but the color is a bit better.

Wow - how long did this take you? Lots of detail, very classic feel.

I bet the church is very happy!

Carolos,
Wow! This is so impressive!

Thanks Julie, Patricia for your time and comments.
That was the best I could do with respect to the colour on the screen. It does look a bit richer in colour when the canvas is in front of you, but not THAT much.
In response to your question, Julie, the painting took me about 2 months all in all, preparatory drawings included. it wasn
