Bea in her dirndl (work in progress), 80 x 60 cm, oil on canvas, ©2012 Julie Galante.
I have nine large dirndl paintings that are in progress or finished so far, all of them hanging out around my studio. I think they’re going to make for an interesting body of work – so many beautiful women in colorful dresses all grouped together. I can’t wait to exhibit them somewhere. But first, I need to finish them!
I last shared this painting of Bea in this post back in October. I’m trying to remember to take more photos of my work at different stages, because I really enjoy looking back at them and seeing the progress I’ve made. I think this one is almost done. What do you think?

Will you be in Munich on February 11th? Come see some of my paintings at Munich Creative Group’s Pop-Up Gallery!
Love it! I think its a wrap!
Thanks, Kim! I think it’s getting close, at least! I change my mind every time I look at it.
Julie, it was so nice to see this new painting!! i especially love the different tints of colour in her white blouse. You are really good with portraits! So glad to see you’re still painting… xoxo
Thanks so much, Pauline!
It’s me, it’s me!
It’s so weird, I *know* it’s me but I can barely recognise myself, eventhough it looks like me! 😀
Great job – as usual Julie!
