Bev's Portals
"Portals"
Oil on canvas
Inspired by a photograph taken by photographer friend Dick Bosworth. I warned Dick of my plan to take advantage of the excellent composition of his original photo, and that the colors were going to be exaggerated from the soft pastels of the scenic Southwestern palette he encountered at the time of his shot. Also that the light was going to pulsate, rather than soothe. When I showed Dick this painting, I believe he was surprised a lot and pleased - just a bit.

Marilyn's Tree of Life
This one took a long time to evolve. I began with the crown of nests and then didn't know where to go after that. I changed the images on the veils several times. Once I thought of it as Tree of life, then everything else fell into place. Have I made you hungry?

Mary's Under the Bed
BELLA DE JOUR
(She does it for the shoes)
Continuing to exploit every theme to serve as prompts to further the collection of 'Bella Portraits', I've once again leaned hard on some old version of photoshop to depict Miss Thing as a thing ON TOP of the bed, with something(s) of interest UNDER THE BED. Namely her sex-pump bedroom slippers. All four of them.

Laurel's Submission
Joelle's Submission
"Submit"
Prismacolor pencils on student quality 8 1/2" x 11" paper.
I start with the lightest shades, sketching lightly as the image unveils itself, building up to the darkest and brightest.
Submission can be entering a piece in a show, and so I could do with this drawing, but when I received the theme I immediately thought of the humiliation of submission to a superior power.
