This is a commision I did for a very lovely lady named Stephanie.
Once again my scan does not show the glittery parts so I included a close up photo as well.
Hi Renata, you have such a unique style, I could spot your work a mile off. I love how you have mixed black and white with the colour details, gives it such a lovely contrast. Again, your work glows:-)
Hi Renata. I've been studying your work this evening, and this piece is one of my favorites. One thing I really admire is how you see beyond reality so clearly. In this particular work, the mysterious light out of view to the right is a great touch. I'll be artwatching!
