Kimono

"Kimono" Oil on wrapped canvas 24" x 24"

When Rosa was seven months pregnant she asked me to paint a portrait of her vessel.  She put on my antique kimono and formed a heart around her belly button.  It was exactly the look I was going for.

I enjoyed painting the sheen and shadows on the satin.  And when it was dry enough, I put in the flowers and pagodas.  There was even a moment of occupational confusion as I did her nails. 


Sorry, this one's not for sale.


Thank you for visiting.
