6 x 7 inches, watercolour and gouache, July 2007. This is my second enrty in the EBSQ sites "Ripped Off" show. The idea of the show is to choose a partner and do a piece using one of their paintings as the inspiration. This was based on a painting by Rachel Cruse called "The Nightingale" - you can see them both together here. http://www.ebsqart.com/Artists/cmd_16287_profile_shows__1_2_G.htm

This is gorgeous Mark, and as always call me bias - I love yours not too taken with the original. there seems to me a lot more emotion expressed in her expression....something very alluring about her gaze... gorgeous!!

You've made a great artwork of it, Mark. I love the background of the original, but I love your painting more. Wonderful pose, so difficult to get it right.
