a different angle of the Hôtel de Ville. this time featuring an old gaslight in the foreground.
going to try another one today. in another color of course.
here are a few roughshod quickie portraits done live. if you are feeling depressed or blue promise me you will either do a self-portrait or a friend's portrait. the resulting gales of laughter will do you good.
don't be ridiculous. of course they're all of the exact same person. done on the exact same day. can't you tell?!

I just want to know how she knew that she was a dachshund? Of course, they are a very particular breed, so go with your gut on this. (says the mama of two dachshunds)XO to both MAM and PG!

I see a book in the making! It’s right there-the character(s) and their personalities. Funny, smart women with a sense of humor, yet with wisdom and a knowing about life. Your talent continues to amaze.

I pick personality and looks of portrait number 3!!! the rest of them you were clearly taking artistic liberties with what you “saw” 😉 bahahahahahha
Susie LaFond says
You crack me up Mary Ann, in the bestest of ways. I’ve just had a martini and a half so I guess that means it is time to sketch and bring out the paints….um that would be awesome but I’m not sure I’m street legal enough to take the stairs down and up again…could be dangerous but you just know I’m gonna try…. followed by a fit of giggles and laughter. xxooxxx Your sketches ROCk btw!!!!!!
Vicki says
I’m concerned about how she aged. Back and forth. You may have something there! Fun. And wonderful. Gaslamp is pretty and captivating.
Tina says
So much fun!!! Have you seen Linda Barry’s books? I especially like What It Is, http://www.amazon.com/What-Lynda-Barry/dp/1897299354/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1408507157&sr=1-1&keywords=lynda+barry

The gaslight in blue has charmed me. And the chameleon you did portraits of is wondrous – in EVERY hair color!
Marcia G. says
Not just different moods and personalities, Michele R. How about four different hair styles? LOL And, yes, you are right, MAM, a good laugh doeth good like a medicine!
Michele R. Unger says
Magnificent! You caught all her various moods and personalities! (I am not saying she is a multiple personality, just that each of us has different uses….you do know what I mean, right?) Love the blue, too. Scrumptious….]
More, please!
