Well, unfortunately, i didn't have the opportunity to paint her while she was alive. I had to work from a glamor portrait of her and had to shoot my sister in law for the figure.
These are pretty tricky when you get a commission like this.
Rose passed away in 2001 and they were commemorating a room in the California State Capitol to her.
Anyway, I will get around to posting some close-ups when I put the final retouch varnish on the painting. There is some drying flat issues on it right now.
Best
