It's not finished yet, but this is what I did yesterday:



It always feels like such a terrible excuse, but I like it much better in real life... all the liquin made it really shiny and rather difficult to photograph well. And backgrounds and I don't get along well at ALL.

I LOVE IT!!!! OMG!!! If you would take a high-quality scan of it and send it to me, I would SO love to have a copy!!!! You're such a fabulous artist... I wish I had half the skillz you do with paint. :)

*whew*

::is incredibly relieved::

It's too big to scan (unless I did it in about six-eight parts and photoshopped it together), but I'll see if I can borrow the departmental camera to get a good picture (with realllly high resolution) to send you.

AWESOME!! The likeness is remarkable, and the painting has great drama! Is is possible for anyone else to get one? Are commissions available?

Wow! That's gorgeous.

How long did it take for you to paint?

From: [identity profile] idlewild-grey.livejournal.com
Thanks! It took about 7-8 hours, and there's probably an hour or so of work left to do.

Thats SO good! Well done you!

You haven't just caught Sarah's likeness - you've caught her vitality as well!

Thank you! That's a fabulous compliment! Of course, Sarah does happen to be terribly inspiring. Whenever I see a new batch of pictures I always want to paint her...
