Lantern Bearing Pierrots

"Lantern Bearing Pierrots"
12" x 12"
Oil on wrapped canvas
I tackled a project that was over my head, yet I finished it. The original Maxfield Parrish painting from 1910, done in a very limited palette, has always intrigued me, so I thought I'd try to make a modern day version of it. Well, it was tough. I'm being brave in revealing my effort, but realize it is merely that… an effort.

    This is VERY different than anything I have seen you paint. Glad I went back to look through ones I have missed!

      Yes, it is! And it was a challenge that I wanted to fling across the length of my studio at every step along the way. Then the minute it posted it SOLD. Go figure. Thank you for commenting.
