This is another failed background experiment. I painted the figure over the top, fast and loose with white paint. It forces me out of the photo-surreal precision that I lean toward. It's like sculpting in a way, building the image layer by layer.

Failed? It's an experiment gone perfectly right! I LOVE this one!!!Terry Bullard 20 Apr 2005
Great picture, I think the background works with the girl, and I like the fastness/or getting away from the precision of realism, so the only thing I notice is the scarf is so detailed compared to the rest - it distracts some because it is so well done!Dawn Sharpe 20 Apr 2005

Geri I would never put this fantastic work and failed in the same sentence, what a great idea letting the backround bleed into the main body, so many times I see a figure blending into the backround, its nice to see this style of the backround blendig forward with the layers of negative space left open and incorporated into the girls dresstazda lawson 19 Apr 2005
