| Portrait of Lunia Czechowska |

| Girl with Braids (Her eyes are not as blue as this photo displays, for some reason the camera wants them this vibrant blue, which is totally different from how they really are) Both have been painted in Acrylics on Canvas Pad/Paper. |
Today in Art Class we have to draw and paint either a picture of ourselves in this style or someone else. Hmmm will see how that goes.........we then take a two week break and on return we tackle a Watercolour Exercise.............have to tell you am total rubbish with watercolours and to make it worse it will be still life.........cripes.
Am pleased to announce the two winners of the Gatefold ATC's are Lynn of Fushia's Crafty Notions and Carol of Crafty Stamper If you email me your addresses will get them posted off ASAP.
Am off to Class now, but will catch up with you this afternoon. Thank you for popping in, take care of yourselves and have a happy weekend. Hugs Annette xx

Wow Netty, these look amazing, you can see the Modigliani influence straight away, very clever indeed!

Congratulation winners
I love these, i have never painted with acryllics and its years and years since I did any painting at all.
I might see if there are any art classes near me.
I enquired a few years ago but the prices were astronomical - they were run by the adult education service.
When I saw the first one, without reading the heading, I immediately thought of Modigliani. Both are wonderful.
Wonderful work Netty. Enjoy your class and the weekend.
Hugs,
Florence xx
I love your paintings Netty - they're fabulous.

Your paintings are really fabulous art works.You are so talented, typical Modigliani, I love him also. Love both of your creations.
Wish you a happy weekend, my dear Netty.
These portraits are looking really good. I'm envious of your art class, even if you have to do still lifes! :) It sounds like you're enjoying it in spite of yourself.
these are wonderful.

it would be interesting to do a self portrait in this style....
These are gorgeous, Netty! Have a fun class! Congratulations to the winners! Hugs!

great paintings! have a nice weekend!
I love these beautiful portraits.
Beautiful portraits!
Your paintings are fabulous Annette - I especially love the Girl With Braids one. I'm ashamed to admit I've never heard of that artist! Painting yourself in their style sounds interesting. Hope you enjoy your class and have a lovely weekend x
both look brilliant !
HAPPY PPF!
These are wonderful. Very well done!
Congrats to the winners. Love the long neck, it's Fridaish. Both your pieces are awesome. Nice going Netty. Enjoy your class.
Gorgeous paintings Netty! The first one shows such elegance and the second one a sweet innocence. Happy PPF!
Fantastic paintings!!! Great essence!
Such a fantastic job of doing art ala Modigliani. I never noticed that about the eyeballs before. Funny.
very nice, I do get than sense of him!
Great paintings.
Awe, love love love! And the first one with the neck is so fab! xoxo
Hi Nettie, love your Modigliani paintings...I tried my hand at modigliani esque style this summer. I really liked the result. Very different from what I normally do. Agree with you...prefer the ones with proper eyes, the others make me feel uncomfortable... :)
Modigliani is a favourite of mine...and you've done him justice. Congrats to the winners.
Netty these are very beautiful, well done, happy week-end to you too! xx
Two fantastic paintings, the second one would be my favourite, the eyes have it for me.

Sounds like a very rough exercise to draw or paint yourself as someone else might! This should be interesting.
I absolutely love these- specially the first one- and as you've seen I have also been stimulated by Modigliani lately- one of my fave artists. Happy PPF Netty dear.
these are both so good Netty! I'm looking forward to the watercolors.
holy moly Netty, these are GREAT. I love them both. That turquoise background on the second one is out of this world. And i laughed at the word "cripes"... i hadn't heard that in a long time. (my dad used to say it). LOL. Keep painting. That first one is absolutely in the style of Modigliani. Beautiful work Netty. xox
Oh, Netty... your Modigliani portraits are really beautiful. I think they are my favorites of yours this year. Really lovely. Happy PPF
Brilliant portraits, Netty!
Love, love, love them!
You are so very talented!
♥♥♥
Happy PPF!!

Great paintings Netty and very in-keeping with the style.
The long necks are really a joy and I like the too-blue eyes as you refer to them. You will be great with the watercolours:)
xx
Hi Netty,
You captured Modigliani's style beautifully; both are amazing.You are certainly learning a lot from your art classes…. enjoy.

Hi Netty
fellow Merlin fan!
I love your two portraits.... especially the girl with the braids.
Good luck with the watercolours!!!

These are fantastic! It's interesting what you said about the whites of the eyes not showing. I feel the same way but had never considered it before. Love that long neck on top.
Oh wow.. These look amazing. I love both of them. Wonderful job my friend.
Hugs~
Wow, I love the girl with the braid.
You do yourself a great injustice Annette, these are absolutely stunning ! I wish I had half of your talent.
