Jean
I love this time period and you have translated it wonderfully!
The expression on her face and looking off the painting creates so many
good questions like, what could she be thinking? Where has she been, and
who is she looking toward, or what?
Such a beautiful young lady and the composition is outstanding.
Great work.

Very fine work, Jean. This reminds me of the old Master’s figure paintings.
Superb!

I wanted to thank all you wonderful people who have taken time to leave such encouraging comments on this portrait of my daughter! I get so far behind and would love to respoons to each of you individually, but life keeps me from that right now. A special thanks to the Realist Traditional Art Group for featuring this too!!! THANKS TO ALL OF YOU :-)
Jean

Lovely pastel portrait! great treatment of different tectures-from shiny satin to the fur,etc.

Superb work Jean.

and congrats on the feature.

This work has been FEATURED in the Contemporary Pastel Painters Group. Thanks for joining!

Congrats on the Feature int he new pastel group- this is a truly remarkable painting!

can see that the delight this portrait has brought has been well commented…tis a beautiful work…wonderfully retro

You are so kind and generous Jean. I wanted to tell you that this has got to be my favourite and most inspirational work of yours. We have such a connection with our children and that is one of the things that really makes me appreciate you. I have a photo of my daughter Jaymi that I pray will be as stunning and beautiful as this when I paint it for her. She took the photo herself on my phone of all things and it blew me away so much that I have got to paint it. Hugs

Oh, you are always so sweet and you really have the gift of edification, Tahnja :-)
I can’t wait to see your portrait! I know the love you have for her will shine thru and it will be stunning!!! Hugs back to you!

Exceptional perfection :)

A stunning portrait that begs to be viewed larger! I’m sure the computer screen doesn’t do it justice, either. A remarkable, gorgeous work of art, Jean!

Colleen, thank you so much! It helps to have my beautiful daughter for a model :)

This is an incredible piece of work. Absolutely stunning. :0)

This is stunning work Jean! – I have seen it in another area of RedBubble (maybe in one of the Portraiture groups) and I was so pleased to see it in the Top 10 of the ‘True Colours’ challenge. It is a wonderful painting, and I know I have commented on it before, but I wanted to tell you again how much I love this stunning piece of your work and, in fact, I deeply admire ALL your work!

Awesome picture Jean – love the composition and your mastery of technique – what stands out for me is the obvious tenderness between you and your daughter that shows in the work

Dion, What a wonderful comment! I love her so very much and she is such a blessing to me! I’m so glad that it shows in this portrait!

i wish i lived back in that era but this is an amazing painting… i love the traditional style.

Jean – gorgeous – Love the comp. Your daughter is just beautiful.
