This is the first in a series of paintings that will be created from photographs taken by Tracie76Photography, mentioned in a previous post.

Woooooooooooooow.... this is the reason I got into blogging so see wonderful work like this and the thought process behind it. I especially love the shoulder area and her hand. Just beautiful.

this reminds me so much of a trampoline series that i did of my daughter when she was about 4 years old. at the time i was working in oil still with overstated plain negative space ... it feels so familiar!
