I really like her Karen, I love the dreamy quality, and the secret garden she inhabits.
I would have a frame made- it needs something that won’t draw the eye away from the central figure-which does stand out nicely now and looks like she is sleeping on a bed of flowers- very Jungian! yet the tree to the right as I look at it appears somewhat menacing and could almost creep it’s tentacles out towards her to interrupt her sleep? A little like sleeping beauty really?
anyway- get a fame made that does it justice- I think it is a wonderful piece!
When I saw her last she was paler,she just feels a little dark and alone, but very (sorry not enough words in head to explain) !!
Much better. She has a serene expression on her face. I love the tree to the right. Almost prehistoric. I’ll leave the framing debate to the rest.
Now that she has a face she looks complete..and oh so content!
