More CryingGirls

I got such good feedback on the CryingGirl close-up on the eye that I tried another impressionistic close-up here. Still a part of the crying series, it is subtler...can you see the faint streak of blue tears coming down the cheek? Much lighter, emothionally, and more sensual with the focus on the lips and curve of the jaw. The colors too are warmer and softer...the tones imply a turn towards better things.

These are a start on two more crying girls. Emotionally they will most likely fall somewhere between the first 5 intense paintings and the last one, above. Here I will be playing around with texture...these have been covered in a molding medium which will catch at the paint in places and give a slightly different feel to the paint strokes.
