Royal Asian

11x14 oil on Raymar panel
$300.00 plus s&h
This model was beautiful, and her kimono was such a vibrant blue-voilet, that when it shone, it went towards red-violet. I wanted to capture her contemplative expression, and then contrast that with expressive brush strokes depicting her kimono. I am satisfied with the results.
