‘Asia Series’ card by Karin Taylor
A more serious piece this time. A painting inspired by the art form of the Geisha. Her discipline and strength I admire. I have used ink, acrylic, charcoal and pastels to create Geisha Girl. The original painting is no longer available, but so glad she can come to you in the form of a greeting card. I hope you like her :D

frozenfa
wow.. so many works in one day.. am getting an overdose here.. hehehe….
love this one.. definitely more serious.. i’ve seen documentaries on geisha, how they have to train etc.. really not a easy life.. i love the way u paint the back of her neck most..
Karin Taylor
replied
thanks again frozenfa :D glad you like. I love the back of their neck too…when I was painting it I was imagining how difficult it would be to do on the body itself – trying to get it so perfect – the japanese men think the nape of the neck is very ….ummm how should I put this ….attractive!
ElRobbo
I presume you didn’t whip these up in a day, Karin!
Karin Taylor
replied
ElRobbo! that got a big laugh!!! Nope, these were done a while ago…I’ll be uploading my beach/friends series next, and then I may pop in a tshirt or two using my digital art. Most of this was also created a while ago too, but I’m having lots of fun uploading them and scoring all these lovely comments!!! Prior to this, I was definitely experiencing an encouragement drought. I feel so much better…..ahhhhhhhh…thanx

I LOVE THIS!!!!! I saw a TV special on the Geishas at few weeks ago, it was unbelievable to see how hard they train and what they go thru. It would be so sad to see this tradition go away. It is such a beautiful part of history. This is truely an outstanding image!!! Kim

Freya Dam
WOW! great work. on first look it looks quite simple but then you see all the small and colourful details.
Your whole gallery is amazing though. A lot of pieces i would actually buy to hang up in my livingroom. (Whenever my whole art budget wouldnt be spent on materials for my own art :P)
Karin Taylor
replied
thanks so much Freya, this took a long time getting things right and balanced, i think my favourite part is the neck makeup…you’re right it does look simple, but there was a lot went into it :)
Freya Dam
I can see that you put a lot of work into it. It is absolutely stunning. And youve used mixed media in an excellent way.
(me feels jealousy!)
Your work is very inspiring. (and im not just sucking up :-)
