Wilde Summer
Coloured pencil on paper. The palm leaf motif on her top is a nod to one of my favourite artists, the leader of the Fauvist movement, Henri Matisse. The painting below is La Musique painted in 1939.

Love this Lee. Is the leaf more a monstera deliciosa ? I used to do lots of these on my tees and dresses [to sell] We have them running wild in our yard, yummy fruit..
