Description Update:

June 22, 2014  - This painting is dedicated to a dear friend, Sebastian.  Thank you for your diligence and brilliance in our quest for justice. 


-------------

Blushing Red was supposed to be a simple and quick painting, but it took me almost 3-1/2 months to finally complete it. I started to stall when my Wacom pen broke. I also had a few trips out of town, then somehow the inspiration to paint evaporated. Last week, my sister gave me the push I needed to finish this painting.

The portrait is a blushing bride wearing the traditional Chinese dress and a red veil. I felt rusty after the long break. It's not as refined as I would have liked, but nevertheless, it has became one of my personal favorites. Reference Used.

Thank you for visiting my gallery!

 You depicted this marvelously. The lady has the most lovely and radiant smile, and there's something about her beautiful eyes that makes one feel that she is very kind and approachable. Her clothing matches her elegance well, and the coloring here is very lavish and vibrant. I like your use of brilliant reds here especially, and there's such a wonderful attention to detail on the artwork overall. This piece is truly exquisite, magnificent, and well refined. Outstanding work!

You know what, please don't feel that you have to thank me for every comment.  I would much rather know you are doing what you love, than thanking me for every comment.  I just am so blown away by your talent and in awe of your ability.

The least I can do is to respond to thoughtful people like you who have taken the time to leave lovely comments.  It's only good manner.  Thank you, Lea!

I appreciate that, certainly, but to me it isn't necessary to thank me for every comment, you know.  ss

I love this. She is so beautiful like the actress, Gong Li. Portraits are very hard for me as I find them complex and unforgiving so well done.

This is so beautiful....her eyes ...you can see the happiness and love in them. The colors are crisp, the detail is just right...sometimes the ones we leave and have to keep making ourselves come back to end up being our best...I had a few just like you described. I love this one!

Beautiful job, but she doesn't seem to be blushing to me...even a bit forward. I would think a blushing bride's eyes would be cast down to one side or the other with a faint glow on the cheeks. But I faved this piece because I like it a lot for what it is, not what the title says. Thanks, Rick
