Hester & Prudence

Hi Ya'll!

I've been experimenting with oil paints in combination with acrylic and did these 2 "ugly" beauties. They are very folky angels - Hester & Prudence.  Both are 18X8 on wooden plank using oil, acrylic, inks, oil pastels, straw and charcoal.  They are very different from my usual works but I love 'em...


Hester has red hair and is holding a birdy - her quote is "The bird of paradise alights only on the hand that does not grasp." by John Berry





Prudence has black hair and is holding a birdy nest - her quote is "My favorite weather is bird-chirping weather." by Loire Hartwould.  Very appropriate from the snowy winter we have had....






Hope you enjoy...
