Description

Xanthe, Greek for yellow, is a watercolour and ink painting inspired by the Art Nouveau style.

A striking female figure is shown in a strong profile. Her hair is adorned with gum flowers, she has a zebra finch earring and kangaroo paws fill her clothing. A ring of pea flowers encircle her head.

Black ink linework hold the elements together while dissecting them into colour-filled shapes. Washes of subtle and rich watercolour add texture and tone.

Painted on 300gsm cotton rag watercolour paper with archival quality ink and watercolours.

Artwork measures 29.7x42cm
