more Governors Island Jazz portraits


Did this one from a photo I found online. I don't think I kept the link. :(
I'm not too happy with how her skin came out. I overworked the paper and it and the colors got messy.

Governor's Island watercolor portrait


Today Nelson and I went to Governor's Island for the 20s jazz picnic again. I loved this lady's head scarf and very pronounced chin. I wish people would've stopped standing in the way while i painted.

My sapphire engagement ring!



It looks like a darker blue in these photos. It's really a bit lighter and amazingly sparkly. I love it and I love Nelson!
