Sudanese Girl




This painting was done for a fundraiser for Darfur and it will be auctioned off later in the fall. I am hoping that it will raise enough funds to make the effort worth while.

Thanks to Misha, Christy, Julie and Allan to encourage me to push on!
I hope I did not disappoint...

Enzie, I believe that this painting will contribute much in many respects. First, it exhibits growth with in your art and it will benefit the less fortunate.

All the best to you

Lovely, Enzie!

My eye goes right to her face now, admires the red in the clothing, notes the hand, then wanders around the architecture: just the right order, I think.

A very expressive face and hand. You've done a great job with this.

Very nice work, Enzie. I especially love the hand. It is so wonderfully well drawn! There's a lot of what's good about Durer in that hand - lots of character and excellent observation. Lovely!

Thanks Thomasin! I tried to stick to simple shapes and create form through value changes.
