Morgan and Baby Girl


14" x 11" Oil on Canvas

What a fun challenge! Purple cows we know - but a dog painted blue? - with a blue eye? Here is the finished painting (I think). Will look at it for a day or two, make a few adjustments, sign and varnish. Morgan is our grand-niece and such a beautiful girl! She will be seeing this for the first time on face book and here on the blog…so…I’m holding my breath but think she will like it. She is a wonderful model and I plan to paint her again soon (without Baby). Thanks Mo!

  2. Rosemary! This is so gorgeous! Love the color of Mo's hair, that glint of sunshine highlighting the red in her hair. Baby? Well he is just the finest looking Bullie ever!

  4. Wow!
    This is fantastic. More beautiful than any photograph could ever be. Love the lights! Rosemary, you are going to go down in art history as a fantastic portrait painter. This portrait seals the deal.
    And, Morgan is perfect in her beauty, even love the fluidity and graceful lines of her hand.
    Baby is beautifully painted also. Exquisite!
