Oh, that blue…
I have no painting skills or knowledge other than what little I learned during a short bout with acrylics. Long, long ago in a land far away…
But just looking at this one and thinking of how to do it… It occurred to me how incredible difficult it must be to paint a sheer veil like that.
Echo Cathy … never apologise for posting photos or artwork. They are part of you and always enjoyable.
Oh my!! I absolutely love this! So beautiful! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
This is gorgeous. I agree with Winston … it must be really difficult to create that sense of sheerness and transparency in the veil. But what a beautiful job Tarbell did. It looks three-dimensional!
Kathryn, your posts are inspiring, even if they are pictures! Keep the good work coming!

I LOVE this painting. That blue veil wow. To have the skill to paint something as luminous and thin and magical as that, would be marvellous.
