Spectacular Pastel Portrait

June 3rd, 2009

Have you ever been wowed?  I was last night.  My long time friend Angie, came by to show me the finished portrait she did in pastel of my daughter.  I am sometimes taken aback at the talent she has, as she is very quiet about her art and skill.  Angie wanted to challenge herself with a blonde haired, lily white skinned subject and I had the perfect one!  I am absolutely grateful to have this portrait and it will be a lifelong treasure.  The hard part now will be choosing a frame to do it justice!  The detail is amazing and Angie has managed to capture Hannah’s personality in the eyes and tentative smile… love it!!
