Girl with Book
The model is Clarissa Darling. She was originally not looking at the camera. The face and the figure were from different photographs. Notice that because she is a young girl the bold technique that is used for the figure could not be used on the face. A scripture has been added to the painting with powerpoint, whenever appropriate, from Joshua 1:8, “Do not let this book of the law depart from your mouth; Meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.”
