My Fisherman

He is coming along.  This is the last post until he is framed and ready to go.  I'm anxious to get on to the Charcoal caricature that Monet did when he was in his teens.  Not many people are familiar with those.  He sold them when he was 17 and 18  before he learned to paint.  They are very good and show that when he  was young  and at a very young age had so much artistic talent even before he began lessons
My work in progress.

New Monet


Having the same problem I had last time.  This is the second time I am posting this.  Why do I have to post twice????  This is my second Monet called " Portrait of Poly Fisherman At Kervillaouen-- I'll call him Fisherman for short.  He is a challenge-- Not as easy as I thought!!  Here is my WIP.

Framed at Noon

I tried to post earlier but something went wrong.  Anyhow I finally  put the finishing touches on my painting, signed it, framed it and I'm moving on to the next one.  In fact it is primed and almost ready to go already.  My back hurts so I'm taking a rest.  Here is Miss Andre Louvray finis!  Hope you Like!!!

Almost Finished Andre Louvray

Well, it has taken longer than I thought but I have been interupted from doing my work with some home problems that had to be solved and still are not.  So I had to put painting on the back burner.  Today I painted most of the day and I think I am almost finished.  I'm very anxious to get on to the next one so perhaps I'm not taking enough time to do my best and-- I keep changing the background.  Well,  Here is still my  WIP.
