Anyone like to colour my Great (or should it be Grand) Aunt?
« on: Friday 21 September 12 09:52 BST (UK) »
I like this photo.  There isn't too much damage but I wonder what she would look like with a bit of colour?  Black and white restores welcome as well of course.

I would be delighted if anyone would like to have a go - perhaps she will be fun to do.

Many thanks in advance.

Maureen - they are both lovely, thank-you so much for spending time on this.  I particularly like the first one,  the colours you have chosed in the bouquet are splendid - so subtle.  I also like the 2nd one - so atmospheric.  The lady certainly is siting in a magnificent studio setting.

Thank you, GS, for bringing some colour to my Great Aunt.  It's lovely and she looks so much better.  I really appreciate you spending time on her.

She's certainly a handsome woman - am I allowed to say that  I see some family resemblance?  ;D
