Finished three today. . .

This is 'Ngaroto Sunrise' which I think I've finished. It's an oil and quite small compared to the others.
AND here is the lady in 'La Patisserie' ready to serve you at last. The oils in this are laid on thick and juicy, similarly to the icing and cream on the cakes. I hope she likes it! (I'm going to show the painting to her before hanging it at Ngaroto.)

. . . and finally, this rather hastily rendered pic in acrylic of 'Jemma turns Nineteen'. I wavered a great deal doing this. Because it had to be done quickly, I'm a little taken aback by the relative roughness compared to the oils. For a moment today, I was so miserable about it, I almost gave up. Not sure even now it is what I want. Ah well. . . time will tell.
