How wonderful that I got to see this again on Valentine's Day! It literally makes my heart pound. I feel there is a lot of tension, as she is in the middle of playing and I am anticipating the sound. There is so much movement and so much lovely color, it is an exciting painting.
I could likely do the math myself, maybe I am just lazy... would you mind giving me in idea of how big the head is in this painting? Or the hands? I love those close-ups too... I never would have guessed some of the colors that I see up close from afar.
