This Week "Aphrodite" Original 5"x7" Painting here

5"x7" Open Edition print here

ACEO 2.5"x3.5" Limited Edition LE 1st of 25 here

I am listing "Aphrodite," an original goddess painting. In this rendition, this goddess of love has teal eyes and purple streaks in her hair.  She is known to the Romans as Venus.  The art has a lowbrow surreal feel.

I also have additional giclee art and ACEO prints here this week from Tuesday to Tuesday with a theme of Greek & Roman goddesses...


Most of my art is also available on my website at www.lisarusso.com; however, I like to put some art on ebay at a lower promotional start rate for the duration of the auctions... I have been updating my website. It's an ongoing project, but there is now an excellent selection of art available!

After the auction, "Aphrodite" will be available on my website here if unsold.

Here is a sketch of a big eyed gothic maiden.  She has a serious expression and is looking at something or someone with interest...  I think she is most likely an angel fairy, although she could also be an 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 May.  This is day 10.

This is a rough sketch.

WIP Gothic Big Eye Fairy Angel Art Original Painting Work in Progress + May Sketches, Sketch 6, Happy Kitten...

In this original acrylic work in progress WIP big eye gothic maiden painting I've been working on her ever so pale skin...  Next I'll be moving on to her eyebrows and eyelashes.  I haven't decided yet if I'll do her eye makeup before her lips, I'm hoping to do something quite interesting with her makeup.  She is likely a fairy angel.  This is an 8"x10" painting on gallery wrapped canvas.  


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 www.lisarusso.com if you'd like.

My Photograph of a Spring Flowers at Descanso Gardens + May Sketches Art, Day 4, Angel Fairy...

I took this photograph of these spring flowers at Descanso Gardens.  There are tulips and poppies and I'm not certain of the names of the rest.  In many of my photos, I focus on close ups, but this view was so pretty I could not resist.  We're past the point where these spring blossoms bloom there, but I hope that you will enjoy this photo!
