Complex Emotions

Complex Emotions (PAFA model) | 12”x 6” | Oil on Canvas 

This gal with her truly fluorescent orange hair is one of the models who worked for The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, when I attended there. I hired her to model as I worked to develop skills in painting from live models. She was interesting to talk with.

One thing I like about this little painting is when you cover one eye, or the other eye, there is a completely different emotion. On the left I see inspiration, on the right anger. Both intense.
