Artwork Description
I am drawn to the Victorian era, a time long past where romance was carefully pursued. Emotions were held in check even though their hearts were bursting with emotions. In this painting, my subject waits for the train that will take her to her sweetheart. Anticipation is high yet she maintains a quiet dignity. The oils were applied to natural linen where the weave shows through giving the painting a true ‘feel’ of paintings of the past.
