My first nude painting – completed

Posted on February 25, 2011 by Slowvelder

Took about 7 hours in all, and some major surgery to complete this picture – it still has a rough finish – as requested by the person I painted it for. It is not going to be framed but will stand on a desk easel in her dining room.

So beautiful. The brushstrokes and technique is so sleek and graceful, it reminds me of a languid cat. Love it.
