Description
I have focused my detailed watercolor work on the subject of this painting - the young girl on a swing. Like the eye focuses on a subject, everything else is unimportant and leaves a blurred impression as in peripheral vision. The organic impressionist background suggests movement as do the girl's hair and T-shirt.
Like most of my action paintings of children, this is a hand-painted portrait from photo. To be clear, I only use photographs as reference material for my original paintings, often producing detailed pencil drawings on the canvas before I paint. My portraits are hand-painted original paintings done by looking at a photograph of the subject as if the subject were sitting in my studio. They are NOT painted over top of a mechanically reproduced photograph. Portrait price list: https://www.koehlerart.com/prices.htm.

This reply is to your comment in the group, Ann, in case you miss it there: WITHOUT PREJUDICE Dear Ann Warrenton, Your announcement that my painting is "old art" and "isn't fair to other members" and that "it steals the from new works" is an insult I don't need at age 75. I have always worked hard and poured my heart and soul into every work of art I create. As well as working at creating my own artistic style and original compositions, I have studied new techniques, produced and submitted new creative pieces on many subjects in many mediums, trying to keep my work fresh and up-to-date. I have never considered my work old and stale. As for stealing from new works: I have liked, favored, commented and voted on the works of 16 other artists in this contest who I thought deserved a boost in FAA ratings, including my nearest competition. Many times, in other contests, I have voted for artwork with many more votes than my own. I admire and appreciate the work of many other artists (including photographers). Some days, I spend up to 6 hours promoting others on FAA. I would never stoop to dissing any other artist's work - not even yours. So, to save you some time in trying to find ways to keep me out of your contests, I am hereby letting you know that I will no longer enter or vote in any of your contests and you no longer have to be concerned about my work being in your group. As Putin has demonstrated, getting rid of the competition is one way to win. Have a wonderful day! Hanne
