ANCIENT EGYPTIAN BEAUTY

Acrylic painting on A4 size Medium Texture Artist Canvas Sheet (primed) – 330 GSM.Size: 21cm x 29.5cm
___________
I am busy writing a novel about life in ancient Egypt. I will tell you all later what the story entails. My research had me buying a stack of Ancient Egyptian refrence books. Some of the books are colourfully illustrated. Since we had been without electricity (AGAIN!) for a whole day, I started skecthing and painting my own versions of some legendary figures from that time period. This one is a combination of Pharaoh Tutankhamun and an imaginary lady.

I go nowhere without my camera, backup batteries, sketch pads, pencils, paints, brushes. It has become a way of life! Lucky me, as no power, means artistic power! So take that, put it in your pipe and smoke it ESKOM!

Just gorgeous Mariaan – and just a note – I’m away from my own computer, dear friend so won’t comment individually on each piece you’ve posted though I have looked at each. Suffice it to say that as always your work is powerful, beautiful and dramatic. Love each and every one!
