Ali
(14"x11" pastel on 300 lb. gessoed w.c. paper)
Ali is a very talented photographer and is the daughter of our friends Heather and Ken (the two previously posted portraits). She is a lovely young woman who enjoys traveling...which is where her love of photographer comes in handy. Ali's hair was a bit windswept (like her dad's in his portrait) and the effect was a treat to recreate using various shades of cream and yellow pastels.
While in a vintage shop recently I was rummaging around in some old photos and postcards... look what I found...
