The Green Girl (Green)

by Godfrey J. Ellis – Acrylic 14×18 June 2025

This young women has a sparkling personality. I tried to capture that but this photo does not do justice to the painting. Wish I could display a better painting. Below is the reference photo.

The flowers were difficult and I never got the color of her dress right. Her name is green and the painting is very green. She loved it, so that’s the important part. Below is a photo of her holding the painting. The lighting is completely different from outside by the flowers to inside the house, but it gives an idea.

Below are four photos of the progress of the painting.
