"TuTu, Two"

"TuTu, Two," oil, 24"h x 12"w, ©2016 Jill Banks
Just finished ...

During my free painting demonstration offered through the Great Falls School of Art on Saturday, March 19, thirteen-year-old Anna struck this pose momentarily before resuming the first setup we'd decided upon.

I really wanted to start another painting to capture this mood and pose ... then, but practicality reigned. There was too little time to start another AND I didn't have another canvas ready in the correct size to work on anyway.

Temptation won out in the last two weeks with "TuTu, Two" completed  this morning.
