Christina

Oil on Board, 7 " x 9.5 ", SOLD
I have been working on this image over a series of
years, actually, and am glad to have finally resolved
it. The contrast of her almost-black hair against the
turqoise background is something that has always
obsessed me, but I couldn't rectify the colors in her
face with the rest of the painting. I finally decided to
just "go with the flow", and I'm pretty happy with the
results, which aren't really true to life due to my
camera. Her face is really more colorful than this.
