I am currently painting this. If I thought, for one moment, that copper pipes were bad, well, let me tell you, lace is no picnic to paint! It’s funny, this is such a simple pose, but getting the feel just right took weeks of painstaking work. The painting is practically flying by in comparison! Except for the lace. I am enjoying it though, this entire series is a huge challenge and delightful fun. It also looks like it will be extended into a full exhibition later this year!
Jennie, Great composition and the challenge of the lace is something we all need to keep us on our toes. Keep it up!

Thank you so much Cindy! It’s been an interesting challenge, I love that these works are pushing me more and more, it’s always good to be challenged!
