Portrait The Star
“The Star” in this case is lovely, exotic, scented, beautiful, the stuff of dreams...
Acrylic and Watercolour on Fabriano Paper
FEATURED IN THE PATCHWORK GROUP
All that I know
Of a certain star,
Is, it can throw
(Like the angled spar)
Now a dart of red,
Now a dart of blue,
Till my friends have said
They would fain see, too,
My star that dartles the red and the blue!
Then it stops like a bird,—like a flower, hangs furled,
They must solace themselves with the Saturn above it.
What matter to me if their star is a world?
Mine has opened its soul to me; therefore I love it...Browning

What a fantastic series! What I notice the most about the star, besides the composed and calm features is the quiet confidence and almost feeling of entitlement!
Janis Zroback replied
Yes there is that feeling, especially in the mouth…she knows what she wants for sure…thank you so much Joanne…
Linda Callaghan

Janis Zroback replied

Karin Taylor
very lovely, i find the asian eyes rather more difficult to do than western eyes, great work Janis :)
Janis Zroback replied
It’s interesting that I never wanted to do portraits and now I ma enjoying the series so much…I find that eyes are really important…I don’t paint expression lines, so my eyes have to tell the story….
