Description

Lydia works at a quilt shop in Berlin, OH....better known as Holmes County or Amish Country. She gave me permission to take her picture in order to have as a reference for a painting. The day I met her, she was wearing a green dress & was finishing up the binding around one of the handmade qults in the shop. As we were pointing out a specific quilt we really liked made of deep , rich shades of purple, she said that purple was also her favorite color. So, using artistic license, I took the liberty of changing her dress for the painting.

Very nice work !

Angela Davies

Such a lovely rendering of this quaint scene! The blending of colors and shadows in the dress are amazing! Your information is very interesting also! I should drive to Lancaster, Pa. and get some reference photos for some Amish paintings. I really enjoy yours. V/F

Marsha Elliott replied:

Thank you for your kind words and support, Angie. I have never made it to Lancaster yet....we have a large settlement of Amish here in Ohio that we visit from time to time, but I do hope to make it to PA someday. Thanks again!

Ken Powers

Very nice work Marsha! That is such a great vantage point. Excellent work!

Marsha Elliott replied:

Thanks, Ken.....much appreciated. The vantage point works well here as the painting is more about what she was doing rather than her face.

Jenny Armitage

Lovely. Love the glow of light behind her.

Marsha Elliott replied:

Thank you, Jenny....always love to hear from you.
