Eternal light



Greetings my dear friends

I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas and was blessed with the company of family and friends. I would like to thank all of you for your kindness and encouragement… It has truly touched my heart.

In browsing through my sketches, I came across this one that I had never finished. Years ago I was on the beach and I saw this young women walking across the sand… When I returned home, I made a quick sketch of her but never finished the background. When I started painting, the background was going to be the ocean. I changed my mind and decided to put her into the light . I should be finished in a few days and will post the painting in its completion. I hope you enjoy viewing. Thank you for visiting, it is most appreciated.
Blessings, Penny

Completion of ~ Angels Dove ~













She is finally finished… 18x24 on stretched canvas in acrylic… Working in black and white, actually paynes grey, was an experience for me… I love color, although I usually use soft pastels. She has been sealed, all that is needed is my signature. She should be available on ebay sometime tomorrow evening. Your thoughts are always welcome.
Thank you to everyone that has been so gracious to stop and visit , and for your very kind words. They are all most appreciated. ...... Penny
