Montana Vintage Era Cousin

If you follow my work, you will have noticed a thread of family characters in Montana from earlier times in the 20th century.  This one was inspired by a cousin named Bill.  Are you reminded of  “A River Runs Through It”?

Mr Darcy Watercolor Portrait

DarcyAceo1
This is the most recent ACEO sized watercolor in my series of Jane Austen character portraits.  Each reader of Pride and Prejudice has her own imagined image of Mr. Darcy.  Our ideas of Darcy are now influenced by the film versions of Pride and Prejudice, but I have tried to create many versions in a series, each looking different than the other men.  This Darcy is the youngest looking so far.  The painting is available in my Etsy shop, click here.
UPDATE:  The Darcy painting was sold on April 13, 2013.  Thank you, Austenlover.
