Original artwork description:

A beautiful 'Alla Prima' rendition in oil of a young lady enjoying an afternoon nap, this work exudes peacefulness. In the style of John Singer Sargent, I have painted this one from a live model in cool tones on Ampersand gesso wood panel.

The work is framed in a distressed pewter (wood) frame selected specifically for the piece (by the framer) to enhance the drama of the work. It is ready to hang.

- Framed dimensions of 14.25" (H) x 17.25"(W) x 1.25"
- Unframed dimensions 11" x 14" x 0.1"

The work has been sealed with Gamblin Gamar varnish for UV protection. The painting is signed on the top left and will be sent with a certificate of authenticity

Thank You for your interest in my work!
