Delivery included. I saw a picture in one of the Sunday supplements of a Russian Icon, which gave me the idea for this. As always it evolved along the way, my work always seems to take on a life of its own. I started by putting different texture mediums on the board as I wanted the picture to feel as if it was painted on the wall of an old building, as with the medieaval frescos. As I started to paint the face it somehow changed from a stylised icon into this pensive lady. I tried hard to make her smile but had to give up and leave her as she wished to be, pensive and thoughtful I think. Her hair is many shades of blues and greens, but so dark it appears black. Much of the picture has little sparkling highlights. Painted on board and framed behind glass.
