Original Big Eye Goddess Aphrodite Venus Painting + Art Prints & ACEO Prints! March Sketches...



"Aphrodite" Original 5"x7" Painting on Canvas Panel Here

This week my featured painting is "Aphrodite."  She has big blue green teal eyes and blonde hair with purple streaks.  Aphrodite (also known to the Romans as Venus) is the Greek goddess of love and is part of my goddess series.  The original big eye surreal lowbrow fantasy goddess painting is available for purchase on my website as are art prints and LE ACEO prints!  


Most of my art is also available on my website at lisarusso.com; however, on the first Tuesday of the month, I like to put some art prints and LE ACEO prints on ebay at a lower promotional rate for the duration of the auctions...  This month, my theme is a selection of my flowers, you may see them here.

I am linking this post with Inspire Me Monday

===============================================


Here is a sketch of two tulips.  I think I have tulips on the mind right now.  I took my reference photos of them during a visit to Descanso Gardens.  They are also flowers that I may be incorporating them into the hair of a maiden I am hoping to start once I've determined which flowers will work best for her, but I have quite a few more sketches to do before that is determined...


I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in March.  This is day 14.  

This is a rough sketch.

    I do like the purple streaks in her hair.

    Tulips are a very nice flower, and I like your sketch here.

    All the best Jan
