Description
4/11/2021 TOP FINISHER in the Contest titled "Yellow Paintings" on Fine Art America, there were 402 submissions, so I was happy to be a top finisher.
10/25/2020 Featured in the group called Old MASTERS - PAINTERS AND TRADITIONAL ARTS on Fine Art America
This is an old antique doll I aquired from my mother and it goes back in family lineage. I placed it on canvases I had stretched and leaned against the wall in my studio. I painted many sketches on Masonite and several large oil paintings during this time of painting.I used large brushes and oil washes, working with yellows and ochres.
The painting is gone and this is some 35 plus years old now. I still have a couple of these Masonite panels in my possession and I know they held up well over the years and did not discolor.
I did in my studio at the Overland building at Massachusettes College of Art in 1977.

This mysterious feeling portrait of a doll is wonderful among the canvases Nancy. I am drawn to that slight tilt and the glow of gold about. F/L.
