Portrait of Joanna
 

I've painted it as my best friend, Joanna's wedding gift.

Oil on canvas. 14.5"x 17.5"

Any opinions are welcome.

Thanks, Piety

I have loved your work since you first started posting. I like it that you are here in the creativity area, whether on purpose or mistake. There is a flood of beauty and emotion in that piece. I enjoy tight intense work but I just can't relate to the objects that need to be in some pieces. This is a still life with human. The energy of the flowers is equal to the character of the face and it bounced to life.

Much enjoyed and appreciated.

Debra, thank you for your warm encouragement!

I posted this and self-portrait painting on Oil critique section at the first time, but those were disappeared while I was processing. I just realized those were stucked into this section after Debra posted on my painting. :( I wonder how it happened....

Thank you for looking anyway.

Piety
