Strolling With My Red Purse – Oil Painting by Winifred Whitfield<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I painted her face from imagination which was not easy – I even turned her head to look in a different direction from the reference – challenging! Overall my painting gives the little girl a different look from what you’d expect in our modern culture. The coat\/dress and shoes in this painting were inspired by attire I saw in a film clip.The little girl in the film clip was Eastern European with traditional clothing and headdress from her country. Though inspired, I wanted to make sure my painting deviated significantly from my reference. I altered her coat\/dress, face of course and gave her a little red purse and ribbon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, photos of my paintings which are painted on highly textured surfaces – such as this linen, don’t photograph very well and they are further degraded by the internet compression process. It looks a bit rough. I regret this but there is little that I can do about it – I’m not going to blur it or add filters. I love the look of this linen surface in real life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a super weekend. Winifred<\/p>\n\n\n\n
