Dot at the NGV

March 6, 2008

We met this lovely lady at the National Gallery of Victoria. My wife whispered to me "Cam can you take that ladies photo for me? I think I would like to paint her" I said "You go and ask her" She said "No, you take one" I said "No, you ask her" ...of course, in the end I asked Dorothy if I could take her photo, as I thought she had the most beautiful and expressive face and my wife thought she might like to render it in pastels or the like. Being a bit of an artist herself she was kind enough to agree.

Camera: Diana + Film: can't remember, too lazy to look...
