Final “Spring”
Because Spring is part two of a four-part project, I had be sure that the choices I made for this piece will harmonize with the previous work.
I have a very clear vision of the overall project, and have decided to contrast the moods of the seasons greatly. On the other hand, I will needed to organize specific consistencies.
They are:
*minimizing of neck and body
*some sort of collar appropriate to each season
*the same necklace representing nature’s hardships
*long hair with a life of its own
*a certain amount of dimension and texture in the back round
*a value gradient dark to light from bottom to top
*one element of disguise
*clear difference in position of the head and eyes reflecting the qualities of each season
(*perhaps a border when all four have been completed)
Below are the steps I took to stylize Ms. Spring, ultimately leading to the finish (above).

Visual poetry. The sweet delicacy of spring is palpable. The gesture pure bliss. I can smell the spring air.
Oh, thank you Karen. I’m so pleased that you find this as springlike as I had hoped.
Again you display the vision of the artist, the skill of the craftsperson and the lucidity of verbal communication of a good teacher. That is a powerful combination.
Louis, you are so kind. Thank you.
