That sliver of light hitting the bride's face speaks of promise, a warm future and delight. I really enjoyed working on this portrait, even though painting those layers of veil were a bit tedious. I love the way they wash over the bride's figure like a cascading waterfall.
"The Garter" is the newest piece at my LifeImages reproduction gallery, available to order on canvas or art paper.

this is a fabulous portrait. The veil reads like a shot.
Thanks so much, Mary. It took me a long time to feel like this painting was finished. I set it aside a number of times to make sure I didn't want to tweak that delicate veil any more.
This is beyond beautiful. I love this picture of a bride getting ready for her wedding, the beauty of the veil and her dress, everything about this picture, I love. gentle beauty.
Thank you, Anonymous!
Very lovely arrangement of warm and cool.
Thanks for dropping by Bill. It's nice to hear from you.
