This piece was taken from a very old photograph which I have reworked into the Art Deco Style and infused with colour. The positioning of the woman on her back with her right arm tucked under her lower back suggests a relaxed and reclining pose which can evoke a feeling of vulnerability or intimacy.
The red hair is a visual element, potentially symbolizing passion, intensity, or individuality, adding a dynamic element to the composition.
The small matching (look alike) bikini bottom serves as a visual focal point and contribution to the overall aesthetic of the artwork creating a sense of harmony and balance within the composition.
I will be entering this piece in an upcoming competition – wish me luck!
