In this original acrylic work in progress WIP painting of a betta fish I've started working on the background. It's a bit brighter I think than it will be when I'm done with the background, but I'm happy to have started this piece, even in the most early of stages. The panel that I'm painting on is 4"x4"...
This is a work in progress, but I also usually post at least one finished piece on Tuesdays if you'd like to come to visit! You also may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like.
============================================
Here is a sketch of a big eyed maiden. She has a gentle yet strong look. I think she is most likely a goddess, although she could also be a fairy angel or a mermaid. I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her...
I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in June. This is day 5.
This is a rough sketch.
Your painting is coming along nicely, and your maiden is beautiful as always. Hugs, Valerie
