Sun bather

Originally purchased for an entry to the Pyrmont art prize this small canvas was chucked aside when I went gallivanting off to USA. Then I thought I might as well paint something that could be used next year.


I saw this woman sunbathing at Wylies and she was rather wrinkled probably from too much exposure to the sun. However I liked her pose and surreptitiously snapped her. I'm not sure this is finished yet but plenty of time to work on it - it's rather impressionistic at this point but does convey the mood.
