| Mater Gratiae, by Mark Langdale Hough, Oil on Canvas, 2014 |
Welcome to the viewing of the not-so-secret project
that my husband Mark has been working on for the past several months.
This painting, Mater Gratiae, is on display at the Salmagundi Club in New York
as part of the Hudson Valley Art Association's annual juried exhibition.
If you live near New York City, you can go see it in person!
(My apologies for the image quality; it's a little blurry because we need a tripod.
Also, getting the lighting right so it looks as it does in person is muy dificil.)
WOW. Zoe was telling me about this!! Wow wow wow. This leaves me breathless, I could honestly stare at it for hours. So beautiful. . .I can sort of see your face in hers =)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Annie! Yes, I modeled for this one. It feels a little strange to see my face in a representation of the mother of God!
DeleteThat is an amazing piece of artwork. It's so clear and vivid that it almost looks more like a picture than a painting!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Leandra! I wish the picture was better, because it is crisper in real life...
DeleteIncredible! You're family has so much talent!
ReplyDeleteOur Lady is beautiful and I love her hands ... drawing me nearer. She looks suspiciously like you too. Did you sit for Mark? I've only read about the Salmagundi in books! This is for real
ReplyDeleteYes, I modeled for this one. The hands were the hardest parts to model--I'm not sure about the painting end of it. :)
DeleteOh my goodness! This is just amazing! What incredible, beautiful talent your husband has!
ReplyDeleteVery gorgeous. I see you in her, too. :)
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Mark painted this piece? It's fabulous!
