Shiny Red Lippy by

Acrylic on canvas In times of financial stress many of life’s luxuries or treats may be scarificed, however there is one where sales soar, this was true also in the great depression – lipstick. Any gal can still look and feel great at not too much expense. ( Don’t know what the guys do!) about 80cmx50cm, original avaliable for sale.

About Karen Gingell

self taught, figurative, major themes dance, horses & other animals,women, nudes. Best critique “you know you’re getting better” last year my mum.
Art is art, any method, media or medium or process is valid (well maybe not metalic nudes on black velvet or dogs playing poker) David Hockney embraces his Ipad paint app & emails creations to friends. Like to be on that mailing list.
Motto: Remember the best remedy for anti-aging is death, Burgundy before Botox

    The red looks great with this color combo… so true about the economy and lipstick!

  • Thanks m – something a little different for me I think, was great fun being a little be uninhibited ( or a little less hibited?)

    true Karen!coco Chanel said “Si vous êtes triste, si vous avez un chagrin d’amour, maquillez-vous, mettez du rouge à lèvre, et attaquez. Les hommes détestent les pleureuses.”(il you are sad,if you are living an unhappy love affair,put make up on,put lipstick on your lips and attack!men hate crying women!)
    beautiful work!!!
