Original Big Eye Gothic Latina Black Fairy Painting + Art Prints & ACEO Prints! February Sketches, 29/29 Faces...

"Paned Wings" Original 5"x7" Acrylic Painting on Canvas Panel Here

This week my featured painting is "Paned Wings," an original fantasy painting.  This gothic fairy angel has big golden brown eyes, purple hair, and wings with a deco nouveau feeling.  I can not say for certain if she is Latina or black, but I very much enjoyed painting her warm brown skin, she is one of my favorites.  The art has a soft lowbrow surreal feel...


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 hearts; some of my hearts are abstract, some are connected to fairy angels, you may see them here.

Here is a sketch of a big eyed maiden.  She wears a crown of roses and is looking at something of interest.  I think she is most likely a fairy angel, although she could also be a mermaid or a goddess.  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 February.  This is day 28.  

This is a rough sketch.  You may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like.  I am also participating in the February 29 Faces Challenge, this is face 29 and concludes this month's challenge.  I love to sketch and I feel I learn something every time I do this challenge.  To see them all in one place, please visit my February Sketches facebook folder here.

WIP Mermaid & AngelFish Art Original Painting Work in Progress + February 27 Sketches, Sketch 28, Fairy Angel

In this original acrylic work in progress WIP painting of a big eye mermaid with her angelfish friends, I've painted the base colors of the fishies.  Next I'll add some shading to the fish and then I'll begin work on their fins...  

This big eyed beauty is on a 16"x20" canvas in acrylics.  I've been mainly focused on smaller works, this is my first large painting in quite some time.  I have so many ideas for pieces, so in addition to smaller works, I hope to paint some additional larger works this year.

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.

Lilac Purple Rosebud Rose Art Completed Painting + February Sketches, Sketch 24 & 25, Mermaid & Angel Fairy...

"Lilac Rosebud" Original Painting Sold, Giclee Prints & LE ACEO Prints Here

I recently completed this lilac rosebud painting, the original was painted in oils on wood.  It sold almost immediately after I completed it, I didn't get a chance to add it to my website until now.  I love roses, they are such beautiful flowers.  The art has an impressionist realist feel.  I'm running a bit behind today, so I'd like to add this one as a 5"x7" giclee print and LE ACEO print into the mix of my first Tuesday auctions that start on March 7th as a new release bonus but they will also be at the link above on my website.


This is a completed work, 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.

WIP Big Eye Latina Angel Fairy Art Original Painting Work in Progress + February Sketches, Sketch 20, Goddess...

Edit 2/21: Sorry, I had the wrong description here, from a while back, the rooster has already been posted, but I believe I will share a floral piece today...

In this original work in progress WIP big eye maiden painting I've been working on her hair.  At this point it's just blocked in, it will be darker in color when I'm finished with it...  This Latina angel fairy has a sweetness to her, I am thinking of "Dulzura" as the title of the painting.  It is sweetness in Spanish.

This big eyed beauty is on an 8"x10" canvas in acrylics.  

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.
