I recently salvaged this image from my stash of paintings. The face had gotten too cartoon-ish for me and I was feeling like giving up on her at the time. She was surrounded by tropical lillies at first but since has been reborn. I brought her back from Belize and decided to suck it up and put some cold weather gear on her.
Like me she's a tropical transport. Suited up for the upcoming winter and planning on settling in Ashland too...
I love the hat! Very unique style, and so fitting for this time of year for me in the Midwest! Tonight it will be about 30 degrees!!!

I think she's really rather beautiful. There is some mystical quality about her - like she knows some secret...

Girlfriend, this is a pièce de résistance! A raw sassy sophisticated carmel skinned lady that is all at once calm and cool, but so hot she melts the snowflakes before they can kiss the ground!

I love her! The colors are so warm and the textures are great! I've never thought of reinventing my old paintings. What a great idea!

Lisa is right; it looks like that hat is mystical. Anyway, I love the color of that hat especially those tropical lilies that you have mentioned. I just can imagine how stunning it is.
