Saint No.39

Oil on Canvas. 11"x14"

Done as a "study" for Saint N0.40. It is a completed work and should not be judged as a "first attempt"... Think of it as a an "also-attempt" (oh yeah... nice and awkward).

More than Saint No.40, this painting is a dead-on likeness of the sitter. I found her (Danielle) with my bogus MySpace profile. And if you never saw my "Anne" profile, trust me here, it's about as inviting as a room full of scorpions that shoot fire. Danielle, being super cool, not only got the joke, but enjoyed the joke. Sadly, she has dropped from MySpace just recently, and I never got to tell her that I have completed her portrait. So if everybody who is not Danielle could turn their head for a moment, I would like to give a private message to my sitter: "Danielle, I finished your portrait."... Okay everybody can turn back around now.
