'Sarah'


Ker-ching! 2 paintings in one month, I feel quite the prolific artist at the minute!

This painting came about when my fiancee, Ana, was having coffee with her sister Aleksandra, who suggested to her that 'Herr James' (as she calls me) should paint her portrait.

After battling the wind whilst carrying this 1 metre by 1 metre canvas to the bus stop, I got the bugger home and got started. 2 weeks later, and here it is.

Artistic license, as ever, has been used, but both Aleksandra and Ana are happy with the result, so I can leave this one alone at last!

And if you're wondering why it's called 'Sarah' and not 'Aleksandra', that's because Ana wanted her parents to call her little sister Sarah, and when they didn't she decided she'd call her Sarah anyway, hahahahaha!
