Fiona – 6 x 6 inch acrylic painting on Ampersand gessobord

 I see why Gustav Klimt painted a lot of redheaded beauties…it’s just a fun color to paint with, and makes for such a striking and dramatic portrait. While her scarlet hair was fun to paint, I thoroughly enjoyed painting the layers of roses surrounding her…set against that blue in the background, they seem to come off the painting panel.  

And just because I love to share a good sale…Jerry’s Artarama is having a good sale on Ampersand gessobord. They are even offering Buy One Get One Free, for a few of the sizes. It’s a VERY good sale!  

“Fiona” is now available in my online art shop.
