This is a pose I had previously explored in a full-size painting, but I decided to crop right down on the face and see what emerged differently. I like the way it all works together here: the strong dark sweep of her hair, the white and red fabrics, and that steady gaze held in place by these framing elements.

Argenta, British Columbia
Oiseau lives and paints in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada. While she focuses primarily on portraiture and the figure, plein air landscape painting is also an important part of her practice and inspiration.
"In painting as in life, whatever distance you travel just opens up further vistas for exploration. Subtleties, bold statements, complexities of relationships, colour, colour, colour. I wish I could paint forever!"
