Good Morning (sketch) Painting

I am often asked if I would sell my sketches. Here is an example of one of my oil figurative pieces at the 'sketch' stage. The appeal of sketches: they are so much more emotive, expressive and alive. They also show the artist's personal energy much more than a polished final piece. I love a lazy morning, sitting amongst my plants in the kitchen, smells of the wood table and fresh coffee all round, just relaxing. I have a deep burgundy bathrobe which inspired this woman's dress code for this piece.
