Miss Maos, Work in Progress

August 4th, 2014: Oil on Wood, 5" x 7", Work in Progress.  I felt like doing something different today, so I worked on this small piece of one of our little princesses.  I'm not sure what I want to do with the background yet, or if I just want to leave it as is, and I may play around with some glazing on her too.  It already makes me smile every time I look at it.
In other news:  I just got my first real easel!  (I've been using a rudimentary homemade version of a table top easel for years, made out of four strips of wood and propped onto my desk with a rock... I'm not sure why it took me so long to get a real one.)  I'm hoping it will somehow make me a better painter, but this is yet to be discovered.  I'll let you know.
