In need of a guardian angel - a work in progress

I have painted several angels over the years.  I was recently asked if I was planning on painting another one anytime soon.  I think right about now is a good time.  

Young Leanora-New Painting

I have become more and more interested in painting portraits.  I just completed this today.  It's 11x14 painted on a cradled birch wood panel with acrylics.  It's available in my etsy shop

Thanks for looking.

Donatella's Arrival~New Work

   I have so much to say about this painting.  First of all, I wish you could see her in person because again,  my photograph does not fully capture the details.  I was definitely inspired  by some Frida Kahlo paintings  as well as vintage fashion photography.  Love Pinterest!   I wanted to bring together my love of flowers, with textiles, and fashion.  People often ask me who the women are in my paintings.  I have no idea~they just evolve but  all look a bit similar I think. Going forward I plan on doing more work that reflects my Italian heritage.   This painting is 20x24 painted on a cradled birch wood panel.  The sides are painted to match therefore it can be left unframed if desired.  Thank you for looking.  Catherine

Gabriella's Table (gets a makeover)

You may remember this painting looking a bit different a few months back.  Occasionally I end up reworking a painting and this just happens to be one of them.  I am much happier with this version.  I consider it a "make- over."  The dimensions are 18x24 painted on stretched canvas.  Thanks for looking.
