(The Consiousness is Unfolding Perfectly)
mixed media painting in acrylics

Natalie is our lovely and dramatic six foot tall receptionist at Kidzsmart. She wore this dramatic outfit to work one Halloween (with a blouse underneath). She is so drop-dead gorgeous that I just had to paint her. She was my first foray into realistic painting from real models as opposed to images from my imagination which had provided me with a fertile ground for many years.
