Growing up, I loved the stories of a 1939 book titled, Madeline (from my favourite city which is Paris). For those of you who remember, “They left the house at half past nine in two straight lines in rain or shine- the smallest one was Madeline.” Glimpsing at it now, I see what a sad story it actually was. This painting emerged organically as I was learning to paint buildings and people in abstract form…and low and behold, there were Madeline and her friends. I thoughts this might be a painting for a child’s bedroom. Dimensions: 16 X 20″ or 41 X 51 cm Framed/Unframed: Unframed on Canvas Medium: Acrylic…

A sensuous image of a beautiful woman in repose. Painting for me is intuitive. It offers energy even in those peaceful moments and quiet spaces. I have an image in my mind and let the paints and brushes guide me. There is something so beautiful about painting the human body.
