The red print dress

This painting has been sold


Oil on hardboard 8" x 8"

Learning strategy: Do what you want with your photos. They're just for reference. I'm learning not just to ignore things but to add things. I wanted this painting to be very simple - no attention to be distracted from the red dress. I really like this painting and for me it turned out exactly as I had hoped.
