It was a typical day in Cleveland, cold and rainy. I don't know why her nose looked so red. I thought it might be that she was self conscious in front of the camer. She doesn't blush. But maybe her nose turns red instead. I noticed this in all the pictures.
If I were going to do a painting, I guess I would have to do some color studies from life? Challenging times ahead of me. It takes so much to create a decent graphite drawing, it is overwhelming to even think about all you must know and apply for a painting. The more I hang around this forum the more respect and awe I have for you and the other professional artists here!!
I have started the portrait and am stuck. But will post a image soon, for critique...
