The Bride by Brenda Oliphant

Lovely painting. You are very good at employing the Art Nouveau style using your own ideas. I am sure the original painting looks even better than the photo which appears to be a little bit pale.

Thankyou for looking, and thanks for your comments. I agree about the photo - perhaps I should take lessons in photography. All this new technology is a little beyond me. I am only just starting to manage the computer bit. Painting and drawing are much easier.

Having done a portrait of the Bride's Mother, I was asked to do one of the Bride. On this I used pastel for the surround applied very lightly with a tissue, and then the decoration applied with Coloursoft Pencils. The Bride's portrait was done in Coloursoft Pencils. I think that I am getting the hang of them now, after only having them ( and hating them) for five years!! The puffed sleeves of the dress proved very tricky though.
