This is an alla prima of Anne. It is painted in oil on linen board about 11 x 14"

"Alla Prima" in Italian means "All at once" or in one shot, this was three hours of work

I NEVER do this, but I slapped this painting on the easel and corrected that silly scarf. I did NOT capture the nature of that garment and it was bugging me. Now, when I go back to paint, it will be ready.
