Maria

Maria had just finished painting the lavender field when I took her photo. We stopped and chatted to her, admiring her artwork, and she asked to see the photo I took. She requested I send her photographs to use on her IG account.

I then asked if she'd pose for my strangers project. Unfortunately some people came along and interupted us, so I only got the one chance to get her portrait.

Maria's an outdoor landscape artist and her website https://www.mariayadegar.art/ shows her considerable talents well.

For a moment when I read your description I had a red queen moment but instead of painting the roses red she was painting the lavender purple. then I shook my head and it all made sense.

Good triptych. (52 week challenge wk 27 perhaps?) I like that I am not only able to see her, but see her at work and her work.
