cello woman


i'm cheating - i painted this a while ago (and already posted on my blog!) but since i had nothing to post today, say hello to cello woman. It's acrylic on paper. 
An off night last night (sick), so rather than paint, i cuddled on the couch with a thick comforter, mint tea and a good book. Hopefully, tonight will be more creative.
i love the sound of the cello. Always wanted to learn to play. Do any of you play the cello? If anyone said yes, I'm envious already... :-) Happy AEDM everyone. Can you believe it's almost over? it's been such a pleasure to find you all... xox

  1. This is a beautiful painting! I love the emotion you have portrayed through the expression on her face and the colors you selected. Very calming and peaceful - I can feel her passion!

  2. This is an incredble painting. I am so glad to be able to enjoy it. The intensity on her face tells it all. She loves what she is doing. It does not get better than that.

  5. What a fantastic painting. She looks lost in the music. I am actually a 'cello player (although don't play too often these days). And I may be biased, but it is possibly one of the best instruments. Go on, get yourself some lessons (or at least have a listen to the Bach 'cello sonatas - 'cello at its best). Hope you feel better soon.

  7. Pauline, your work is so wonderful. I admire what you do. Hope you're feeling better soon. Without the "sick" part, sounds like my favorite kind of evening.

  9. I like these! Sometimes I draw musicians at concerts, but this takes the sketch idea a little further. Hmm... I appreciate how hard it is to paint those moving fingers- nice work!
