Your baby Hayes is very powerful . . . I do see a Lucien Freud influence. He seems ethereal and regal, a wise baby. I have admired your ability to capture personality and character with your other baby paintings as well. They're a great subject that no other artist (or none that I can think of) handles as honestly as you.
Wow! Lorraine says it so much better than I could say! The warm and cool skin tones are so beautifully captured with your paint brush. And the proportions are perfectly painted. Well done, Jean! And congratulations!
Oh my goodness! That is such a precious baby! And such a gorgeous painting!
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome! And what a terrific gift:)
