Wonderful Nancy, you are so good at expressive portraits! Great work! fv
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
This is a small watercolor. I always imagined doing some really big Sargent type painting. Don't think I'll achieve that ....but I did enjoy all of my portrait drawing and painting.
Nancy Kane Chapman
