Mindy Lacefield Girl

Hi everyone,

I'm joining in with Sunday Sketches today with a painting in the style of Mindy Lacefield. Well I say style, it's the closest I could get though it was only my second attempt so please be kind!
I found it such a hard style to attempt as it's completely different to how I normally draw my faces but there's something I'm really drawn to in her artwork.








Bockingford Water colour paper, Neocolors II


I'll be back later as it's the second Sunday in the month it's MMW time ;)

Hope you like it

    Ah, how sweet is this Donna! That sweet bitty bird is trying to cheer her up. It's working on me anyway. I feel very cheery now. I don't know the style, but I think you've got a great sketch here, colored wonderfully.

    I see a lovely image of a little, a bit sad girl looking in wonder at the bird who has just landed on her hand. I think you did great!

    I am not familiar with Mindy's style, but I love how your portrait came out. There is a tender yet fragile look in her expression and the bird gives hope. Beautifully done!

    I am also not familiar with Mindy's style but I love your girl and how she looks at the lovely blue bird. Your colors are beautiful as the whole illustration is!

    I have never seen any of Mindy Lacefield's works, but yours is so sweet. I love the look on her face and the little bird in her hand. I am interested in the watercolor paper you used. I like the texture of it. I think it adds to your picture. Such a nice piece. genie
