Dream-Afraid-of-Waking.jpg

I took the title from Bette Midler's song "The Rose"
Prep in PhotoShop and painting done in Corel Painter using oil brushes.
I wanted to keep the black and white but just brought in touches of
color from the faded roses.

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Lovely, Cat. I like the touches of rose in the black and white painting. Beautifully done, as always. Marcia

I like this one very much Cat. I am a real fan of red, so this combination is very exciting. I almost think the portrait it's self could stand on its own. Beautiful! Karen
