Progress on "Jo's Toes"
Pastel on paper, 7 x 10 inches (18 x 25 cm)
This portrait of new arrival to the world "Jo," is a challenge. The photograph I am working from is fabulous and it is my job to somehow add something new and worthwhile to the image. I will never be able to achieve a likeness as good as the photographic portrait, so it is only through color that a different, if not superior, emotional response may be evoked.
