About "Homage"

This painting is inspired by one of my favorite portrait paintings by John Singer Sargent, called "Lady Agnew of Locknaw". Probably one of the most challenging portraits that I have ever done, but I've learned quite a lot from Sargent's technique and the number of effortless details he added to his work.

The chair and background is my own unique style and I created that in a more looser style, but the portrait and figure I tried to get as close as possible to the original paintings.

About Liesel

I am a Fine Artist, based in Free State, South Africa. I specialize in realistic drawings and paintings of People, with a subtle Christian Narrative. My preferred mediums are Graphite Pencils, Soft Pastels, and Oil Paint. I work mostly from photographs, but love to do life studies when I get the opportunity.

My personal work deals with self-believe, and identity, especially regarding my daily battle as a Christian to realign myself to God's word. It is also about God's values in contrast to the World's.

I have art collectors all over South Africa, as well as overseas. In addition, I have created a wide variety of custom-made portrait commissions for customers, working mainly from photographs.
