As a painting evolves, it creates its own story - the strokes of the paint guide you into the canvas and when you get lost in the painting (even for a few seconds) -- the painter has done their job. That is the magic of painting -- to create a place to go that makes you smile, makes you think of memories that you cherish, and touches your heart!
When painting people, I love to push the painting to the abstract where you as the viewer finish the story through the movement of the paint. Red is my favorite color and using greys around it makes it "pop" on a canvas.
Capturing that fleeting moment is what this painting is all about.
