Colored Pencil and Neocolor 1

She's done and I just found out I won First place with her in the Omaha Artists, Inc. Anne Baker Memorial Art Show

"Ancient Elements: Earth, Water, Air, Fire"

We had to do an Artists statement so mine was as follows.

Baveras is the goddess of the Sea. She is wild and untamed but playful and caring. This describes my daughter, the subject of the painting. She is the goddess that grants artists their inspiration and their courage to literally sail to new shores with their works.  My daughter is certainly an inspiration and gives me courage to sail through life.
