Mellowed the colours, softened and reshaped the eyes plus added some more colour to the background. Like her a lot more now..............
The following pieces are from my sketch book.............
Deep In Thought............worked in Oil Pastels
Then a quick coloured pencil sketch of my Great Grand-daughter, which is vaguely like her........lol
A couple of Acrylic Paintings which unfortunately do not photograph well because of the glass frames... Fire Maiden and Ice Maiden
Christmas Presents - to be given as a pair
and to finish a photo of my Great Grandchildren whom I love dearly...........so full of mischief
Thank you for popping in, am showing all these bits and bobs at Paint Party Friday. Have a great week and take care, hugs Annette x

beautiful grand children, they have the best smiles, so cute she is too sitting on the little fella 's lap, lol, the fire and ice paintings will make a super gift! Your portraits are beautiful!
I'm liking the change in your portrait, Netty! It's such a process, isn't it?
Your great-granddaughter sketch definitely looks like her - what an adorable photo too! The faces are all looking great, but the Fire Maiden takes centre stage for me - wonderful!

Great grandchildren! Annette it does not seem possible! They both are so very cute - absolutely precious and so happy! I love the lady in the first picture - she is so pretty and looks like she comes from the 50's.
All the art work is wonderful!

I love Deep Thought - reminds me of a Pre-Raphaelite beauty (Lizzy Siddal) and your fire and ice maidens are stunning too.
Wonderful paintings, loving the Fire and Ice maidens!!
Gorgeous art work Annette, the eyes on the first one are lovely. Have to say how adorable the family photos look.

Fabulous Netty, what an amazing collection! You are going from strength to strength! Love the photo too!
Your oil paintings are fantastic. I've only done one oil and then I stuck my finger in it and messed it up. I didn't know oil took weeks to dry.
Thanks for visiting my blog today.
What wonderful works! You have been very busy! Definitely a resemblance between your great granddaughter and the painting! Lovely framed gifts and the top portrait is soft and lovely too.
Love how you've changed the eyes in the first painting...You're so active with pencils and paints Annette!
You great grandchildren look so nice ánd naughty :-)
Enjoy everything, Alie :-)
Awesome to watch the changes taking place in your painting. Love your your fire and ice maidens! Someone is going to be a lucky recipient! Your grandbabies are sweeter than sweet! xoxo
Oh so lovely artwork, Netty! Great portraits! And on the subject of great - your grandkids look adorable! Hugs!
In the years I have been following you, your art has grown in so many ways. I love your paintings! Look as those beautiful grgrandchildren! Xx
Wonderful portraits this week, Netty. I hope you are feeling well. I got my shingles shot last week and had a small reaction, but better than the actual malady. I smiled when I saw your adorable grandchildren. I just joined the on-line Sketchbook Skool, so hope to get the habit. Thank you for stopping by my blog.
those great grandchildren look magnificently mischievous... and I love the fire and ice maidens... but so impressed you are tackling portraits... they are my nemesis subject so you are braver than I am lol...xx

Such lovely art and those christmas present pieces are really great and so flowing! Your great grand children look so happy, they must bring you so much joy!
Lovely faces.
Flying maidens are perfect set together.
I've tried almost all mediums but oils never. Waiting to dry would be too much for me! :)

Exquisite portraits, especially I liked the blue look on the first!
The first one's eyes are so incredibly sweet and kind. The color is lovely too.
Beautiful art, Netty. Love the photo of the kids. Did you say g.g.-kids??? You are much too young, but aren't you lucky to have such wonderful young ones to enjoy?
Great work Netty. I particularly like the Fire Maiden and the Ice Maiden.
Wonderful portraits. The first girl looks so gentle with lovely eyes, the second has a lot of personality with a very attractive strong face and the one of your great Grand-daughter (??? surely you are too young!) does look like her indeed.
brilliant paintings Netty! I love how you softened the first portrait. LOVE the fire and ice maidens, and what utterly adorable grandchildren-so photogenic! Happy PPF!
I love what you did with that first painting--I loved her to begin with, but what you did added to her charm. I especially loved your fire maiden. She is beautiful.
Your grandkids are darling, by the way!
Your lady looks much happier this week with those little bit of eye fixings. Funny how the eyes really are the key to the soul, or in this case the key to a better painting. And your fire and ice maidens are beautiful too.
Your painting is beautiful, and so is your sketchbook pages. And what wonderful great grand children, must be a treasure to have such.
Lovely portraits! Sweet great grand kids!
I like your portraits both vibrant and subtle. Your grandchildren are adorable and must bring you much happiness.
great art and lovely photos
Its hard to know just when a piece is finished isn't it? Love all your artwork! Hugs! deb
Beautiful artwork and so adorable kids!
Thank you for visiting my blog!
I like your portrait... interesting mood and colour:)
Netty wonderful portraits. My favorite is the Fire Maiden. Your great grandchildren look adorable-:)
Happy Sunday
I love those maidens, they look so powerful!! Cute pic of the kids too. :)
Lovely maidens & even lovelier children!
Have a beautiful week, Netty!
