ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Beautiful original painting built up step by step from sketch to the final coat of varnish. The lady depicted with her pose is reminiscent of 'girl with pearl' by Vermeer. With her mysterious gaze, she looks questioningly at the viewer.

SPECIAL FEATURES

Frank again used thick textured paint and paste in this portrait to bring more depth to the painting. Furthermore, several parts are painted with metallic acrylic paint, which gives a very nice luxurious effect and in the right light a brilliant shine.

The edges are painted along, so the painting does not need to be framed and can be hung immediately to enjoy.
