I think that I have as much fun taking pictures of my artwork as I do actually painting it.  This wonderful french book that I photographed the original on was recently purchased while away in Atlanta.  I really love the book.  I think the silhouette looks outstanding on it, too.  I have made cards of this that look JUST LIKE THIS above picture, if you are interested.  Let me know. 

Here she is framed.  I love the contrasting blues of the books and the stripes.  Wow, if I had a room with stripes and jewel tones like this, I would have so much fun with my artwork and a camera.  

The sides of this are just beautiful. 

The back of these Italian frames are very nicely assembled.  I really like the beautiful paper.  As I mentioned in an earlier post, they are hand made, too. 

Finally, here is another shot of this little miniature.  You can also look at it on ETSY.  It is for sale on my ETSY store KOLENESPICHER.

Kolene Spicher Portrait of a Little Girl in Blue from 19th Century Regency Era, Georgian Style

Little Girl Blue

I love the details in this sweet dress as well as the distressing that shows on the side of the original (Carefully look directly above inside the edge of the frame itself).  I carefully placed this painting on top of another piece of art.  The backdrop is frenchy cursive that is very watery looking.  The focus is suppose to be the 

young girl.  

This was taken in daylight under natural light.  The drape and silhouette forms in the background are really something that I enjoy doing.  I like to see lots of contrast.  I also like the details in the water.  

I love the way the dark black lines draw your eye to the ship in the background with the dark lines of the ropes. 

The ship painting in the background is one of my favorite paintings that I own.  I have had it resting on the mantle in in kitchen for about 10 years.  

  

4" x 6" wide is the painting itself.

Just look at the detail on these frames.  LOVE the paper.  This frame, like the painting, is 100-percent handmade in Italy.  The leafing is gorgeous.  

Enjoy!
