The Golden Curtain
This was the second model of the year, Emily, at de Stoker. She had long hair but for some reason she had the hair in a knot. The model sessions at de Stoker are normally 3 sessions per model. The first session I got a place so that I could see the model straight in her eyes.
She had problems with her eyes so she closed her eyes very often. I decided to switch place to get a side view. There were a mirror and it was broken. I had a new experiment; I used gold paint for the curtain. There is something with her legs but for the rest I managed to paint her proportionally correct.
On the left and right side you see the marks from the spikes of the oil paintings clamp. I really had to do something about this.
I moved from Sweden to The Netherlands in 1995.
Here on this site, you find my creations because that is what I do. I create.
