friday painting #38

the foretelling
22" x 28"
I think the backdrop for Anna Sui turned out the best.
And I love most everything in her show…especially the black and white dresses with the bits of red.
Lastly for fashion week we also did Milly - sort of surfer girl shirt image (here is last season's fall). My left arm is still aching from fashion week. I think I pulled something…and it is slow to heal.
a close up:

This was a successful for me painting. And doing more wasn't any harder, even with the extra color study.
I need some ideas for my netflix queue…I only have eleven movies…anyone have anything I MUSt watch?
Although the fall tv season starts next week - I love television, & a new season seems like there is possibilities for falling in love with new tv shows.

That’s just spectacular, Wenders.
Have you guys worked your way through the box sets of The Wire, yet?

I envy you. My husband and I have 123 movies in our queue, no lie. Granted, most of those are TV shows. I think this is one of your best paintings so far, the colors are much more muted than I expected but so beautiful! Breathtaking in fact.
