Portraits
Sophie
A little girl under a big straw hat, with the violet ribbon in her fist.
Very fair hair falls in strands across one eye; the other, blue, looks straight at us. She tugs at the ribbon tied under her chin, half good as gold, half up to something. Against the dark ground the hat becomes a halo.

About the series
The portrait is painted in oil, in successive layers, without copying a photograph: likeness emerges from accumulated matter and the harmony of colours. Commissioned portraits are made in the studio from references supplied by the sitter.
