I can see a new "Exotic Attire" series starting, Satu! This is a great foil to your Nomad piece, which exuded a cool, mysterious air. This one exudes party fun, and is wonderfully whimsical. Love it!

Really striking and you have used exactly the right colours to show us that these are African girls in their native dress. Wonderful work.

Only just catching up after the hiccup with the site. I wish I was as tall and slim LOL Fabulous colours, a very eye catching painting.

Thanks a lot for your comment on Marseilles under snow. I browsed a little through your gallery, you are very productive, and it's quality production, I love your rich palette. Too bad I cannot see the originals!

I was given a photo of these lovely tall African girls and I just had to paint them. It was at the end of a workshop last week and only one hour left so I had to do it really quickly. Dark background first and then the figures. As always I enjoyed the challenge and probably don't need to add anything more to the painting.
