'Aveline'

Aveline is a 12x12 inch painting, it comes framed, signed, sealed and ready to hang.
 
For her latest paintings of highly colourful women with crowns, Elizabeth draws on iconic artists of the 20th century: Henri Matisse and Frida Kahlo. Like Matisse, she focused on the beauty of simple shapes, bold colors, and expressive lines. And, like Kahlo, Elizabeth found inspiration in exploring the female form and the more severe emotions that come with it. The women depicted in these images, are not smiling. They are at peace with being able to exist in the world, without putting on the front of a contant happiness for others enjoyment.
 
“There is nothing more difficult for a truly creative painter than to paint a rose, because before he can do so he has first to forget all the roses that were ever painted.” – Henri Matisse
