(96) Favorite LBD8 x 16, oil
private collection
I chose a different canvas size for this one (8 x 16) that I feel is perfect for the elongated subject. In order to post it to the blog, I photographed it on a neutral square background (so the gray on each side is not actually part of the painting itself)
Coco Chanel introduced the little black dress in 1926 and it is still a fashion staple 82 years later. "One is never over or under dressed in a little black dress"....Karl Lagerfield (from the house of Chanel)

I love this painting and the lace detail in the dress!!
Thank goodness for the LBD!! :)
You don't have photoshop or something where you could crop the image Faye? Once your file is cropped it will post in any shape.
Thanks, Christians--the lace was fun to paint.
And, Frank, I must have done something wrong, because I tried several times to post it in the cropped shape and could never get it to upload. Then, when I tried the square format, it worked--so who knows what that means, but I will try again tomorrow. Thanks for your help.
tremendous. It's really great.
I just came across your site... very glad I did!
Wonderful subject matter, and very inspirational!
