These are a couple of paintings I painted for my Mom currently hanging in my Mother's house. They're both of my Mom the Queen with red hair! My Mom had long, wavy, strawberry-blonde hair as a young girl and has a big heart, thus the subjust matter; and I think possibly a big iron sword under her skirt, but I digress. Both of these paintings actually have alot of texture in them. The queen painting has sparkly jewels encrusted in her crown, and little three dimensional diamond shape textures all around the thrown which you can't see in this photo. (Note to self: take close-ups of detail.) It just happened that the two paintings have striped backgrounds.
