| ' Girl Power ' painted in Acrylics |
Continuing to be inspired by this book I completed a block canvas called ' Tell me whom you love '
this time the background was layered with various papers and painted over with acrylics. The moulding at the side was stencilled with texture paste and painted gold. Various other stencils were used plus Glass Beads Texture Gel. Yep am loving this stuff. The little bird is made of wood which was then painted to tone in with the rest of this painting.
After looking at how these have turned out am certain Kelly Rae Roberts didn't have such long necks on her girls, guess Modigliani is still lurking in my brain.......
Wishing you a happy and sun filled weekend. Thank you for visiting me and take care of yourselves, hugs Annette xx

Both paintings are lovely :)
These are fabulous. I love them. Your work is unique!
Your paintings are beautiful :)
I love your long-necked girls - your own twist on Kelly Rae's gorgeous inspiration... Both paintings are absolutely wonderful - the trio is my favourite, I think: there's something so delicious in the relationship of how their heads incline to one another. Beautiful work, Netty!

I have a sisters painting in my mind but never got around to painting it. So I really admire yours.
Love both of these, long necks and all! What lovely gifts!
Fabulous paintings love them both but the three girls is my favourite.. mainly cos I have two sisters...

Charming and delightful and fun!!
Oh Annette - these canvases are gorgeous - really spectacular. I adore the second one and you have sent my wheels spinning. You know how the masters copied each other? Well I would like to try and copy you - is that okay? I like the way you put your special spin on the girls with a long neck -- Annette you have really inspired me to do better than what I have done ---

Thanks for stopping by Annette! I've missed my blogging friends... & seeing your work! As always, it is full of so much charm! I adore both of these pieces :)

Netty, your girls are gorgeous. Yes, I thought Modigliani when I saw the trio. You do such a fine job with that technique. Some of the materials you mentioned were new to me. I'll look into some of it. I love the swirl. Just beautiful.
These are lovely, really like the second one!
Your paintings are gorgeous, love the faces, textures and beautiful colours.

Kelly Rae Roberts is always such an inspiration. Your painting is fantastic and a wonderful gift. I like the long necks on your girls, they look very elegant. Happy PPF Netty
I can see both influences in them and while I love the figures I do think you are nailing the backgrounds... awesome work...xx
I always love to see your work. You are so talented and everything you create is beautiful. I go back and forth on which painting is my favorite - I can't decide because both are great.
lovely gentle paintings..happy ppf
I love how you used various materials and how they came out. It is so cohesive in the design. Blessings, Janet PPF

Such lovely girls. That's the great thing about art, you make it what you want it to be and I think the long necks give it your own personality.
