Muses

There are so many wonderful, beautiful, amazing women in my life that I feel so fortunate to be able to call friends. All of these women are also my willing models and I am constantly inspired by their unique looks and personalities. This is one of three paintings that I am working on of my friend, Dannah. Her sweet face was just perfect for this idea of hanging stars in a secret garden. When the late afternoon light hit her face, I knew we had a winner. "Secret Garden" 12 x 16 oil.
