Seated woman with camera - oil painting

Painted late 2022/early 2023 this artwork features a young woman sitting outside, surrounded by plants, holding a vintage Polaroid camera. The sitter is Khairah, and describing herself in her own words..."Above all else, I love creative expression. Whether it's directing actors on set, writing poems, performing covers, or getting into the nitty-gritty of an academic essay- I am happiest when exercising my imagination."
The painting measures 33” x 23” and is done in oils on mounting board.
I thank Khairah for the opportunity to paint her.
