This is a newer painting. A lot of glare is showing up in this picture but you get the idea. I wanted a warm face to contrast with a very cool background. I also was trying to get a loose style in the background to compliment the more finished face.
This is oil on board 12"x24".

David, these paintings seriously make me jealous! Beautiful work . . . . your paintings are some of my favorite!
Haven't been by in awhile, but still... never dissappointed!! I,like this one and I especially like the bg. Very nice.
Great painting Dave. I really like the composition!
The rough background works well. The whole painting is really beautiful.
dave, all this is remarkable! i've seen other skillful artists, but very often they lack personality or emotion. you got it all! brilliant in anyway ! : )
Brilliant anyway? Brilliant always! The background styling is brilliantly executed man. Great stuff as usual!
Beautiful!
Thanks for comment and thanks for stopping by!:))
I like this rather strange juxtaposition a lot! You went for dislocation, in a way, rather than integrating her with the background. The result is an intriguing painting.
Very nice play on tones.
Beautiful, Dave.
to change a little, a comment in french: "c'est splendide!"
bravo!
Your excellent work David
A pleasure to go through here
Greetings
What a wonderfully evocative painting...
