Description
This is the first figurative oil painting Ive done a for a long time, so its rather tentative and exploratory. Feels like feeling my way somewhat, as everything I have been doing recently is not really editable in any way. i.e drawing marks not erasable or paint applied in such a way so as to be undoable... so baby steps, but anticipate merging the two painting styles at some point.

Exceptional portfolio and exceptional portrait with such a perfect title Empathy. I am drawn to the brush strokes, the expression. I feel her, very powerful!!! L/F

Thank you Carolyn, happy you enjoyed it. It felt rather strange using a brush again after all the conte drawings Ive been doing!... I think my muscle-memory has dementia :-)
