Repose

"Repose"
12" x 24"
Oil on wrapped canvas
Her lacy knit top probably covered her adequately several months prior, but not at the time she sat for me.  This pose was not my favorite of the ones I painted, but it was practice at something for which I've had no training. 

I enjoyed working on the Rosa paintings. They made me explore a difficult subject and gave me even more respect for people who paint the figure with exquisite sensitivity.
