So I did something an artist should never do- lose patience....I don't really know if I'll work on this painting anymore, but it was fun painting a portrait for the first time, and I'll do better next time :)

“Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.” | “No, I don’t think I will kiss you, although you need kissing, badly. That’s what’s wrong with you. You should be kissed and often, and by someone who knows how.”

history | charles dana gibson
charles dana gibson was an american illustrator, who is best known for his creation of the gibson girl, which was an iconic representation of an independent euro-american woman at the turn of the 20th century. a gibson girl was described as “a member of upper-middle-class society, always perfectly dressed in the latest fashionable attire appropriate for the place and time of day. the gibson girl was also one of the new, more athletic-shaped women, who could be found cycling through central park, often exercised, and was emancipated to the extent that she could enter the workplace. in addition to the gibson girl’s refined beauty, in spirit, she was calm, independent, confident, and sought personal fulfillment.”
i love sunsets, i love discovering new music, i love stargazing, i love walking, i love the smell of earth after it rains, i love coffee, i love the smell of books, i love quiet afternoons, i love open windows, i love the underlying flavors in food, i love poetry, i love freshly baked bread, i love painting my nails, i love flowers growing through cracks in the pavement. etc etc
