This isn't my usual subject matter, but I'm painting it to donate to a show to benefit the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation for their research to find a cure. The theme is True Heroes and the subject matter is Super Heroes. I've never painted a Super Hero before, but I'm giving it a try with Wonder Woman.
Lately I seem to be posting very early progress shots and then jumping to the final piece... I think that when I'm working on a deadline and get into it, I tend to forget to take additional shots. If I remember to, I may post another in progress shot on this one.
I know quite a few artists who don't use line art, but for me, line art is essential. I sometimes deviate somewhat from the path as I go, but I need the foundation of line art, and my early stages progress shots show the bones of the piece.
I did finish the painting I was working on last Friday on time for NFAC, she's on eBay here if you'd like to take a look at my finished piece.
Also, I'm joining in this week with Paint Party Friday. To see more participants, please visit:

Great start and a great cause you are painting for!
I have fond memories of Wonder Woman from when I was little, I even had a costume!! Love the start you have made. :)
Great start on Wonder Woman and love the art piece on ebay ~ She is beautiful! ~ A Creative Harbor)
That sounds like a really good cause to be involved with and your Super hero,I'm sure will do well for the event. Hope you post progress pics but if not look forward to seeing the final painting (:
You are off to a good start for a great cause. We all loved Wonder Woman, didn't we?
She's looking great already. I was a fan too!

I was a fan of wonder woman also, I think because we all secretly want to be wonder woman. Great cause, she looks strong and wonderful, looking forward to seeing the finish.
Wonder Woman is da bomb. Or did we say that back then?
Smashing start and for a very worthy cause, x Happy PPF, Annette x
What a great painting for a great cause! Bless your heart!
Thank you so very much! The first two super heroes (or rather heroines, because I didn't really have any interest in painting a man) who popped into my head were Cat Woman and Wonder Woman. I debated but decided that Wonder Woman was the way for me to go with this... I'm not done, but I am making some progress with her. I might post an in progress picture later.
Your wonderwoman is looking great already! Looking forward to seeing the next posts.
Love your Wonder Woman painting start!
Great cause!
Thank you very much Myrna and Denthe!
I always love to see the work in progress, but I also forget sometimes to take pictures--I'll look at the finished piece and back at the one picture I took, and think, "Wow, that really changed!"
Glad to know I'm not the only one Karen :)...
