50 x 40 oil. A commission for a friend and this is her granddaughter. Lots of glazing to get the shadiness under the hat ... lots of learning to in the process. Hope you like.

About the Artist

Heather Love

I started to paint in 2018 . I started with acrylics and now use only oils and mainly canvas on board. Most of my portraits are 38 cms x 60 cms or thereabouts. Am still on a big learning curve but really enjoying the process and discovering new techniques very step of the way! I go to art class…
