This is Eris, the Greek goddess of turmoil. I usually don't do pictures that are meant to convey anything but peacefulness, but this one just popped into my brain one day. I was really bored so I had time to paint her better than I usually did (at the time. This is one of my older pictures). I like her hair. Usually my redheads look weird(to my utter shame!) so i was pleased with the way it turned out.

14"X17" watercolour on watercolour paper. Painted June 2006.

Wow!

Great picture! Wonderful colours!! I LOVE the hair. Red haired have always something mysterious, you will never know what they think... You worked with many details, I really like that. The pic becomes very interesting, and somehow the background fits really good with the hair.

Just go on with such great pictures!!

Oh I love this one! The hair is indeed fantastic! She has a great facial expression as well. I have no talent for watercolor and it's obvious to me that you hogged up all the talent... so enjoy it 1 I'll enjoy looking at it!

62 Sarah J Hartzell replies: "I'm so glad you like her! And thanks for visiting. Come again, and I'll be looking for the new additions to your site too!"
