that is sooooo coool Carmen…i looked at it large…yes, can see hairy chest n all…i love the richness and depth in lights and shades, and just the paletter itself is really delightful to me :D
Carmen Cilliers
thanks karin… it’s been a tough one to complete, difficult to maintain the looseness, i think it’s too contrived still, and also photographing it to upload digitally makes it look quite stiff. There’s so many layers in this but on a pc you lose all that. I am glad you like it, I suspect you understand my frustrations!
Ed Moore
Carmen…My, my, you sure have mastered this technique. This is most excellent!

i like this very much , Carmen. nice details and color.
did you mention something about maintaining looseness? that is something i struggle with myself. have done some but, have to give myself a time limit, otherwise i go back to trying to make everything just right. and sometimes i don’t want everything just right. lol
it’s a great painting, Carmen
Sandra Fisher

We were blown away by this artwork! Couldn’t resist it when we saw it. So glad it hadn’t been snapped up ahead of us. It now has pride of place in our Denmark nook. Thanks Carmen. Shame you didn’t win an award with it – it was the standout piece at the exhibition.

hello Barb and Phil! I am dead chuffed that you have left a message here for me and that you are happy with your painting, “Strip Strollers”. People down south must be liking this style because “Lifesaving Trials” is hanging in Margaret River and won a High Commendation. Thanks so much for buying one of my paintings and for stopping in and saying hello. : )
Carmen Cilliers replied
Hi Phil – thanks for your call : )
I just had another thought. you could always buy a card of Life Savers and then decide if you are happy to buy a print in a bigger size… alternatively I am happy to do a commission for you.
Cheers Carmen : )
