I have painted this woman several times. The painting is 12 inches tall by 16 inches wide and was created on a canvas on birch wood panel. The framed size is 14.75 inches tall by 18.75 inches wide and is beautifully framed in a acanthus leaf gold on cream frame. The frame is Hollywood Regency style , I believe. She looks pensive in this paiting. I wonder what she was thinking that evening? Planning her trip west? Thinking about upcoming shows? Only she knows. What do you think she's contemplating?
