                    Gayle, Lavender and Katie, greatly obliged. Thank you!
                    There seem to be quite a lot of silent views here. I love the quiet crowd.

                        Lovely. Are you painting over a texture ground on the paper? I am just curious, is there a story behind the headdress and priestess title?

                            Very nice ! I like the color of the gloves.

                                Thank you guys.
                                I paint over older paintings of my own (almost always…..), hence the texture.
                                Btw, this one was already in a frame behind glass when I took this shot. So there are a couple of reflections there.
                                As for story, it’s up to the viewer to make it up.

                                Well, Hairy, when you run out of superlatives it’s hard to think of anything to say. They’re all exceptionally good and enigmatically engaging. Sometimes a little scary but most often evoking concern for the vulnerable looking players.

                                This character doesn’t look vulnerable to me.

                                Has no one else noted the reptilian three-fingered hands?

                                You paint over old works? I’m shocked they didn’t find buyers.

                                A painting is never really done as long as I can get my hands on it.

                                        Cliff, wow!! Forever obliged!
                                        Boa, thanks.

                                        #684747

                                        What Cliff said echoes my thoughts.

                                        This is another evocative piece.

                                        Your work has the feel of a reinvention of the Greek tragedy. I am reading a book on the Trojan War at the moment and I can just picture this woman in the role of Cassandra.

                                            Colin, much obliged, as always.

                                            Exceptional, again!
                                            Like Clifff and Colin, I noticed the hands and the ‘attitude’ ….. definitely not a lady to mess with, she’s already contemplating her next victim!!!

                                            Cheers, Maureen
