People and Portraits Please see below for a small selection of Yolande's people and portrait related pieces. Yolande explains "I love people and figure drawing. I like capturing different people's facial expressions and movements". Peasant by - Yolande Letshou "This portrait piece I painted using Acrylic is not as vibrant as my other pieces and the mood and facial expression is quite sad. It is a rather nice contrast to my bright portrait collection and brush techniques " Young smiling Girl by - Yolande Letshou "I used oil pastels for this piece which reflects youth happiness " A Degas piece by - Yolande Letshou "I used oil pastels on watercolour paper for this piece which was originally done by Edgar Degas when he started loosing his vision." Cezanne piece by - Yolande Letshou "I used watercolour and acrylic paint for this piece originally done by the French Artist Cezanne " E Munch piece by - Yolande Letshou "I used solely oil pastels for this piece famously known as the "madonna". " No face lady by - Yolande Letshou "This is one of my favourite yet simplest watercolour pieces. I feel having no face on the women makes this piece interesting and gets the viewer thinking about connotations behind the piece " Happiness by - Yolande Letshou "This is another one of my pieces which reflect youth happiness. I again used solely oil pastels for this piece. " Cezanne piece by - Yolande Letshou "One of my favourite Artists of all time . This French Artist truely knew how to use colour to depict the mood and expressions of his paintings. I used oil pastels to create this portrait of Cezanne " Ancient male Portrait - Yolande Letshou "This painting has been extracted from my early Art book which focused on portraits and vigorous brush strokes from all different Eras. Here I used water and strokes of Acrylic here and there " Edgar Degas piece by - Yolande Letshou "I used oil pastels as the sole medium for this piece originally by Degas. I love the way the woman is captured. I tried to experiment with quick strokes and medium tones."   .Workshops .Contact .Links Copyright © 2008-09, Love Genevieve (Yolande Letshou), All Rights Reserved.
