THE ARTISTIC TRAVELS OF AN AUSTRALIAN PAINTER

Jennifer Harnett's Australian Art Tour has come to an end... so has her stay in Lismore, Northern NSW.

"I have found some truly beautiful and awe inspiring places this trip, am very thankful for all the wonderful experiences I've had and look forward to the adventure continuing!"



Oldfield Commission IV

There's been a fair bit of development with this peice in the last couple of weeks, so there's a fair few progression photos to catch up on….


Had been sketching out our lady flat & it was only when I raised her up vertical that I realized I’d drawn her body out of proportion to her head. So first things first… lets re-proportion her! 

She’s been fleshed out, with a touch of colour added.

Now for all the critters in her hair, she’s a bit like Snow White in that she will be surrounded by an assortment of butterflies, insects & birds, all tangled & partially hidden in her wind blown hair.

 She has a bird on her shoulder & butterflies in her hair…

Defining her face.

Am really pleased with her expression, she has very strong, and yet soft features with very direct looking eyes :D
