Day 33Yea! I'm about 1/3 of the way through my project. Thanks to all who are participating!
This beautiful young lady's photo was sent in my her Mom, who lives in Berwyn, Alberta, Canada. I had to look up Berwyn. It's north of Calgary and north of Edmonton - waaaaayyyyy up in northern Alberta. Population a little over 500 so I bet everyone in town will see this portrait. I know from growing up in Duluth, MN, how it feels to be outside in -20 below temps - you HAVE to cover as much exposed skin as possible. Every breath is a cloud of vapor.
The challenge of this photo was to portray that frost on Heidi's hat, scarf and eyelashes. As a matter of fact, I was concentrating so much on that aspect, that I really didn't notice that I didn't match that scarf color very well.

BRRRRR......and I thought it was cold here - just proves what a wimp I am! This is magnificent, Carol. I actually like the color of the scarf because it brings out this girl's beautiful eyes even more. Love the frosty touches. Keep 'em coming - this has been a great challenge to follow!!!
She is beautiful, Carol.
It comes across wonderful Carol! Even better than when I saw it...!
This one is really great....
Gosh Carol, just when I think you can't get any better, you knock out something like this...fabulous!
Dear Carol, I am sooo enjoying watching your portraits go up each day. Marvelous job, wonderful essence you are capturing in each one. Brava!
Carol - This is by far my favorite portrait - The colors play so nicely together!!!
really lovely
Your portraits are all so well done - I love this one - and the scarf really makes it wonderful!
Wow, this one is a nice one!

Oh, this is great!
The composition is sooooo unique (and strong) having Heidi's face partially hidden like that!
And I'm digging the apple greens in the painting too!
