Giselle Again - A Work In Progress

My best friend granddaughter, Giselle, continues to be my favourite (favorite) model.



Oil on stretched canvas 31 x 24 inches 

I have another in progress that I feel might surprise y'all.

    1. Masterpiece is aiming a bit high! :)

      She won't end up as a redhead though.
