Did I have this in mind when I started &#8211; indeed not. I just started. \u00a0Open a blank screen, selected a rose toned backround. filled it with a patterned paper texture, liked it and thought &#8220;hmmm&#8221; &#8211; what shall I do next? Perhaps an antique settee with a lady draped across it. I sketched a little settee, put in the arch of a doorway. I knew I wanted the\u00a0to create the\u00a0illusion of depth and a room beyond. \u00a0Looked back at my settee and within the shadows and pattern of the structure saw to women sitting there. \u00a0That set my direction and I simply \u00a0followed it. \u00a0It is kind of a one step at a time kind of evolution for me to create this kind of painting. So, I added the structure of walls, the floor and decorated the room. I love texture as you can see.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/girls-in-parlor.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1677\" title=\"girls in parlor\" src=\"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/girls-in-parlor.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"604\" height=\"429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/girls-in-parlor.jpg 604w, https:\/\/winifredsgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/girls-in-parlor-300x213.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 604px) 100vw, 604px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I think it is important to get something down on paper.
