I visited Indian yarn yesterday and was fascinated by the photograph in this post about the Garhwalies of the Himalayas.There are several other striking images on this blog. Here is the photograph that inspired me:
(Image from Vijay Pande9's FlickR)
Her nose-ring is so impressive and makes such a great subject.
I had to paint the Garhwali bride. Here is my rendition:
15 cm x 15 cm
Acrylic on stretched canvas
She has a beautiful antique stain.
I am going to dwell on this subject for a while.
Can't get over the nose-ring, I simply LOVE it.
Bon weekend à tous.
