Mary


Finally have a new painting! This is based on the Lady of Guadeloupe image of the Virgin Mary. It is 16x20 acrylic on canvas. I decided to try something new, I really tried to get the flow of the dress and robes to look realistic. I focused on adding more contrast between light and dark colors to get a shadow. I am happy with the way it turned out, one of my favorite parts is the moon, I wanted to change that up from the traditional image, just to give it some of my own touch.
