Claudionor Viana Teles Velloso, or Dona Canô, is a 103-year-old beloved lady and mother of the famous Brazilian artists Caetano Veloso e Maria Bethânia. She's so charismatic that became a personality by herself and not only for being their mother.

Hi Christine, Thank you for your lovely comment on my blog. I did sketch the face myself. I love to draw, especially faces and then I incorporated the face into the digital background.
ResponderExcluirNext month I will be taking an online class with Katie Kendricks and will be focusing on painting, and textures using acrylics, and mixed media.
I'll share what I'm up to on my blog. Hope you stop by!
