This only took me a year....

"Invisible Woman"  Mixed media on canvas   30" x 24"
Wow. I finished this painting last night, it was one of those that just finished itself. I remember starting this painting like a year ago. It was inspired by a book I was either reading or had just finished by Jeanne Ray titled "Calling Invisible Women". It's a humorous book about a woman rediscovering herself. It was an easy read. This morning I found the book and the receipt is still inside (I often use the receipts as bookmark), it is dated April 21, 2013. That's where the "wow" came from to start this post, and now to end it. Wow.

Beautiful painting, love her stole with the cool reds in the light and the hot red on the right. You had a great show at the Stutz too!
