Hildy found a home! I painted her in ‘19, and she’s almost sold several times since then. Here she is in a private collection in Maryland: “Hildegarde, In Pearl Strand”. Yay! 1: stretched oval canvas, 2: 36” genuine rice pearl necklace with sterling lobster claw, 3: ceramic vase resurfaced, painted, with natural peach moonstone eyes.
