The Falcon Lady


We encountered this lovely woman at an outdoor market in Redondo Beach, California, last November.  She is a falconer.  What I am happy with: I like the colors and contrast in this painting, and I think the best part of the painting is the pair of boots.  What I'm less happy with:  her face -- it's so hard to do such a tiny face!  This is painting #5 for the 30-in-30 contest, and is 6x6".
