Portrait in oil painted on a canvas pad. It didn`t start out with this idea, but somewhere in the process she made me think of my mother as a young girl.
Quoting a song by Sting:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roGSyZC79Dg
...Whenever I say your name, whenever I call to mind your face I'm already praying
Whatever bread's in my mouth, whatever the sweetest wine that I taste
Wherever I lay me down, wherever I rest my weary head to sleep
Whenever I hurt and cry, whenever I'm forced to lie awake and have to weep
Whenever I'm on the floor
Whatever it was that I believed before
Whenever I say your name, whenever I say it loud, I'm already praying...
I`m a Belgian painter from the beautiful city of Ghent in Flanders. I have a great love of portraits; trying to capture the moment and the feeling in the subject`s eyes. My work focuses on the human form; faces and nudes. I'm inspired by all things beautiful and often by books, music and films. Thanks for your visit here! Christel. (All rights reserved.

Tanya Filichkin
What a beautiful painting, Christel - lovely primary colors choice, applied in a clean, puristic way, but what is most appealing- gentle, deeply lost in thought expression of the model’s eyes. And of cause you chose a perfect title - as always in a case of all your paintings. Great work, L/F.
Christel Roelandt replied:
Wow, what a great compliment or rather several compliments in a wonderful comment, Tanya!! I have been away and haven`t picked up a brush in a month but packing my suitcase and leaving again. Hope my easel still likes me?? Best wishes, thank you so much!! Christel.
