Original artwork description:

Woman as Fire and Air.
She is gold, like a Goddess ...
her body is sparking and sparkling;
her breath is white and vigourous.

I've created a digital photograph of this painting set on my mantlepiece, to give an idea of its size in a room setting, in a dark frame.

Available unframed ...

It is painted in warm, shiny gold gouache on grey/blue Indian handmade paper.
This 29 x 42cm / 11 x 17" acid-free cotton paper has an uneven, but pleasing, deckle edge.
I just love to paint on it!
(When framing, it may be an option to ask your framer to "float" the image (if you would like the edges to remain visible); if so please ask that the painting is kept from touching the glass by the insertion of a slip to give some depth.)
The gold gouache is a beautiful warm shade, and if hung under a spotlight, it will catch the light beautifully.

N.B. you can see another photo of this painting, along with its sister piece (Earth and Water), in the "Me at Work" section in this shop; this painting is also available here on Artfinder.

The painting is signed on the front, lower right.
