Hello to all.

I think you all know the model by now. A little bit "unorthodox" for me concept-wise, but I gave it a try anyway.

Oil on linen, 195cm x 114cm.

Thanks for looking.

Carlos, this is wonderful! Gave me quite a shock when I realised the reflection was different (I'm a bit slow on the uptake ).

The composition and your brushwork are both so lively.

I wish I had painted this.

I'm slow on the uptake too - nice visual surprise!

Your work is beautiful.

Very nice, Carlos. The face and the still-life arrangement on the dresser top are especially lovely. The witty and thoughtful concept has great impact. Thank-you for sharing this.

I really like your painting. The figure of the girl in the dress has a great rhythm that you can feel from the tip of her head all the way down to her foot. And I like how the movement is continued from the raised foot to the fall of the draped fabric on the chair and across the carpet and then back up to the reflection in the mirror. Nice colors too.
