Classical Oil Portrait of a Teenage Girl

This Mona Lisa-esque portrait makes one wonder what this intriguing young girl is thinking about. It's a head and shoulders portrait, with a hand included.

The dark sweatshirt merges with the hair to emphasize Sydnie's face. The necklace and lace shirt add subtle feminine touches. The colors of the clothing and background harmonize and set off her beautiful blue eyes. The editors of the Artists Magazine were so taken by this painting they chose it as a cover image and featured  Marvin's work inside the magazine in a feature article.
