Warmth of the Sun

(C) 2016 Dale DiMauro

This is a little watercolor I have been working on over the last several weeks between other projects. The photograph does not show it but there a is tint of a rose color in the background which I particularly like. This color makes the fleece more vivid and subtly defines the white pants.

Gerarde Doucette my art mentor, helped me refine the fingers and facial features. This watercolor has an overall warmth which I find appealing. I prefer simple compositions for these smaller portraits which I have been working on lately. By isolating an individual against a blank background characteristics of the sitter come out.
