Size:
Finish:
$9.90


“The Prayer shawl”

Acrylic on a small stretched canvasdimensions 51cm x 26 cm

price $300au which would include P&P

Looking through venetian blinds is a small acrylic painting
with a few layers of shellac which I mix up myself from those beautiful beetle saliva and wings …thankyou bettles for beautiful shellac! I added some extra light to this painting in photo shop as it was so very dark due to the many layers of laquer.I like the way some planets appear on her body as if she is looking through the blinds and the planets are reflecting back on her.

    Beautiful painting Catherine….

  • Thanks janis..much appreciated ..and I hope your day is going well
    it’s getting very cold here ..melbourne /victoria gets some really cold snaps it’s almost winter here …but certainly not as cold as canada gets
    we had hail here a few days ago and we’ve never seen anything like it
    as it completely covered the ground like it had just snowed..we were absolutely amazed !
