Acrylic on canvas, 16x20"

The painting is on a stretched canvas, painted round the sides, with a string on the back, so it is ready to hang as it is, or can be framed if you prefer.

My friend took a photo of herself which I thought had wonderful composition and lighting. She kindly agreed to let me use it as a painting reference. I don't know what makes me associate people with different colours, but my mind visualised her in purple and turquoise. I was pleased with the effect of the style using a limited palette. I also painted her in a sort of spotlight. She likes watching musicians perform on stage so maybe I was thinking about her being on stage with them.
