The Red Turban

9 x 12
oil on masonite
Sold
I painted this today on a whim and I love how it turned out.  This is from a photograph posted by Carol Marine on Daily Paintworks.  I couldn't resist the chance to do a classic "woman at her bath" painting so thank you Carol for providing the great material!

    Terri, this is wonderful! I love how you made it your own by painting her "turban" red. Love it!

    Thank you Linda! I thought a good, sparky red would compliment the greenish toned wall and pull out the nice rosy skin tones. And I can't pass up a chance to use transparent vermilion (Holbein), such a great juicy color!

    Her red turban really caught my eye. Great job with the challenge!
