Original Big Eye Goddess Hera Juno Painting + Art Prints & ACEO Prints! July 14-17 Sketches...



"Lost and Found" Original 16"x20" Painting on Canvas Here


This week my featured painting is "Lost and Found".  Hera (also known to the Romans as Juno) is the Greek goddess of marriage and the family and is part of my goddess series.  This is a piece from a while back, I am currently working on the sketches for a new Hera painting.  This original surreal lowbrow goddess painting is available 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 myths and fairytales, you may see them here.

I am linking this post with Inspire Me Monday

July 14-17 Sketches


Here is a sketch of an orchid.  I loved the delicacy of this flower's lines in this side view...  I'm unsure if I'll paint this sketch or not, but I did enjoy sketching it. 


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

This is a rough sketch.


Here is a sketch of a big eyed maiden.  She has a sweet demeanor...  I think she is most likely an angel fairy, 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 July. This is from day 15. 

This is a rough sketch.


Here is a sketch of an anthurium.  I love how this flower has a heart shaped quality...  I'm unsure if I'll paint this sketch or not, but I did enjoy sketching it.

This is a rough sketch.


Here is a sketch of a big eyed maiden.  I may develop her further into a Dia de los Muertos/Day of the Dead piece with marigolds instead of roses in her hair...  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.
