Original artwork description:

My inspiration for painting this masked carnival lady came from all the colourful costumes I saw whilst visiting Venice during their carnival festival. People in beautiful and flamboyant masquerade costumes filled the narrow streets during the festivities.

In this masked woman painting I wanted to capture the majestic look of a peacock and feathers. Each feather has a piece of dichroic glass at the centre which sparkles when the glass catches the light. The whole painting is then finished in a high gloss resin which is highly reflective, giving a behind glass look to the piece.

Bold and striking this large artwork will be a talking point in any room.

This predominately blue and green mixed media artwork is 100cm wide x120 cm high on a boxed canvas. The sides are painted so there is no need to frame the artwork. The painting comes ready to hang using attached D rings and picture cord.

Materials used:

acrylic, boxed canvas, dichroic glass, high gloss resin
