Marie Antoinette

This painting wasn't originally meant to emulate Marie Antoinette, but the pink and blue background dictated the colour palette and, well...voila!  I'm so happy to have taken the beautiful photos of my daughter in her amazing sewing projects as it really has been great for inspiration, especially at a time when I wasn't certain of the direction I wanted to head in my work.  These little lapses of creative inspiration are common for me, especially after having committed to a large body of work over an extended period of time.  And they are always followed by a great series.
