Oil 24" x 18" on prepared panel.

I took my time on this one, as painful as that was.

Kim, this is truly gorgeous and you deserve a lot of applause. I think your paint handling is subtle and so interesting. I'm also a fan of your mythic metaphors. Congratulations on another wonderful painting.

Sooo gorgeous Kim! Slowing down seems to suit you! You've captured some wonderful subtleties in her skin. The background is changed here from earlier versions.... this one really fits your theme. I like the decisions you made here, and beautifully executed!
