Her grey skin and blue clothing is worn like a uniform with all its connotations - duty, allegiance to tradition etc. Her red lipstick and steady gaze reveal her strength of character and womanly charm. Strong and stunning portrait.
Yesterday I wrote how lovely she is and how much I like the colours of our flag on her, but I got a NO on posting from AW. So I'm telling you now that this is a marvelous lady, Nelly!
Artist Reply: a No on posting? eh? thank you dear Anneke for telling me and for the gorgeous comment! xox nelly. Still wondering about the NO from AW, maybe they can explain...
