Farm Woman - WIP

Farm Woman 12x16 Oil on masonite

A work in progress (WIP)

The inspiration for this painting is a 1940's black & white photograph from the National Archives. (The title is theirs - I'm going to think about renaming it when I finish the painting). In the original photo, the lady is wearing a dress so I "modernized" her by putting her in casual outfit that ladies might wear today.

I've been glazing and fussing lately. I need to give her a face, give her a "hair-do", take care of the left wall and call it DONE! Procratination is killing me this week. Maybe I'll get it done soon. Maybe not. :-)
