Original artwork description:

Pastel and charcoal drawing of a serene young woman with closed eyes.

The bodice is fashioned from folded decorative papers (see close-up photos).
Her hair ornament is a Physalis fruit's paper-like wrapping, flattened and fixed to the paper.
The image is dusted with gold powder.

Right now the drawing is floated under glass in a matching frame.
Apologies for the reflections in the photographs.

Upon purchase I will have it reglazed with quality non-reflective acrylic, ideal as it is lightweight and non-breakable - for sending by courier.

(Please contact me for a price if you would prefer to purchase it unframed)

Materials used:

chalk pastel, gold powder, physalis husk, tissue paper, japanese papers
