Anna in Yakut dress
"Anna in traditional Yakut dress",
oil/canvas/wood,
20"/24", 50cm/65cm
4 months of work...
Still might work on it,
but I think it's almost finished

Oh my word! You're not what I would call lazy! It's nothing but astonishing. I am not sure what more you would work on except, perhaps, enticing her to actually step out of the canvas to greet us. What most appealing is that it is so finished and yet the brushmarks are not at all tight. A supreme effort, and just waiting to win a fortune in art competition prizes!

absolutely stunning... I love the skin tonal range and those eyes. You certainly stepped up the bar with this work.

I wanted to create something perfect.
So I gave myself as much time as i needed...
The bar was set up not in function of the technique
but in function of the emotion which the viewer
had to feel meanwhile in front of it.

Dear Thomasin,
I'm waiting for that fortune since too long
to be really interested in it
As for the competitions,
do you think those who judge us are better than we are?
Actually I loved your nude paintings,
there is something innocent and astonishing in them...
Best regards Sergio

Dear Sergio,
I have really missed you here! This is a gorgeous piece, not as if that is any surprise.
I think this portrait is fulminant with your style, compelling, and I love seeing it.
PS This probably feels like a "miniature" to you.
For newer Forum members, please take the time to search all of Sergio's posts. I promise you will not be disappointed.
