Lovely and loose, something I aspire to!

How beautiful she looks Linda. You are brave going in straight with the paint, I would have to at least have an outline!

Thank you Julie, I'm usually quite detailed with my work but was pleased with the outcome of this. Margaret I've been going straight in without drawing first for my last few postings, it gets easier every time and it certainly produces a looser painting, the trouble is I sometimes don't know when to stop then I start filling in too much detail 😀🎨

Fine work Linda. Nice balance of detail and loose.

Lovely painting, Linda. Painting straight in is something is love to be able to do. I love the colours and her expression.

Went straight in again with watercolour, trying to keep it loose, very quick it took me about half an hour, it's only small 5 X 5 , free internet image but adapted to my style.
