Christina Bell Art

I am selling a few more of my paintings to make room for more projects. This is my first time selling my work on-line and I am anxious to see how it works! It seems so much easier than gathering my paintings and lugging them to events:-) Hoping to have equal to more success this way!

22 x 17 1/2" with grey/black painted frame

The fun part about this painting is that I documented it's progression with photos. This portrait is a reflection of how I feel during the long dark winter months. I stare out the window waiting for the buds to form on the trees. Truly a Summer kinda girl:-)

 My sketch on paper.

 Then painted canvas dark and used chalk to transfer image... Then used Acrylic paint...

This was my first attempt at human figure. I have always painted abstract landscapes and figures but this was truly enjoyable. Most difficult are eyes and lips. Also keeping the proportions.

There is a story behind this painting... You may or may not believe it but it is the honest to God's truth!  I painted a landscape but was extremely disappointed in it. As I stood there my husband suggested I flip it to see if I like it any other way... I did and there she was! A naked woman. Do you see her curves?
