Having Sophia’s arms cropped out of the shot should break all the photographic rules. But somehow, the shot still looks good. It must be the exotic Italian-ness coming through. And the eyes have it too. What arms?

(This is another example of my celebration of the mature woman).

I saw this painting of Penny’s on her site a few days ago, and loved it. I was going to leave it another week to feature her art again, but seeing this again, I had to post it on my Art Blog here, now. Will find out more details later from her (UK time difference), and maybe the title, if there is one.

(copyright Penney Sandel 2021)

This painting by Penney Sandel is entitled “She” and is acrylics on canvas board (12″x 15″ in the old money). From Penney’s own pen: “The core features are that of a friend. A friend of many years yet never met, never spoken to, but her beauty, peace and power always radiate. It incorporates everyone I encounter on media, in person and via the dreaded zoom.”

As soon as I saw Penney’s painting on her site, I too thought I knew this woman. Like one of my all-knowing aunties. Or a vibrant woman on the street who you think you have known for years, but you have not. Please keep an eye out for Penney Sandel’s artworks on this Art Blog in the near future. Or visit her site on Instagram.
