Beautiful work Betty! Using an antique doll this old must have made you very nervous. I wouldn't want to even handle her. Do you work from photographs or a "real" still life? Nice lighting and details.
Artist Reply: Thank you, Maddison. I tried to keep her in good shape - not easy since I have been known to fling paint into non productive places! All of my still life is painted from the on site setup. Some of my other paintings are suggested by my own photos - usually those are composits or somewhat embroidered by my imagination..
