I don’t know how long I can keep on being so pleased with results. Every time I do a painting, I think it’s the best one I’ve ever done–until I do the next one! I’m not trying to brag here, I think it’s more like having the thrill of the new that wears off quickly once we encounter a new “new”. But having that thrill at all is certainly a wonderful reward for hours of painstaking work! So I will put a nice frame on Nik now, and admire him until I’ve completed the fourth painting in this series. I have some photos to start thinking about, but I’m waiting to see if I can get one or two more from my client to clarify some details before committing to the design of the next portrait.
Charm, showing off the only braids that will stay in her endless mane.
