Well, I literally rolled out of bed to paint this…Bert looks so pretty when he’s sleeping…I didn’t do him justice. Of course, sometimes he just looks funny with his face smooshed on the pillow. It is hotter’n blazes here so I painted this without clothes on…is that TMI? It was nice to get this painting out of the way so early in the morning…Reminds me of Gauguin, if I must say so myself…ha, the female Gauguin.
I love this. What a great painting!
Thanks Stacie!
I thought the same thing–Gauguin. How wonderful to capture him this way. A person without the attributes of either sex. As you say, he looks pretty. And so a man should. Enjoy your youth, passion and talent. Wonderful painting.
Well, maybe more like the attributes of both. Thank you!
I’m usually drawn more to nature type paintings (landscapes, flowers, animals) but I enjoyed this painting. Reminds me in a way of my husband when he was a lot younger.
