This is an original oil painting, I painted this on a drippy canvas, as
you can see from the background...It is done in colors of red, pink..
and the green leaves to help balance out the reds....
This is 11"X14", painted on a panel which makes it easy to frame, as it will fit in a regular picture frame..
$140. Free Shipping in USA....Thanks so much for looking at my artwork......Janis Tafoya
When I paint I often am able to tap into
Emotions, often from the past.... as aids I
use music and essential oils....This painting is
an example of this...
