"LADY MYRA IN LOVE"

"I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way-things I had no words for."- Georgia O'Keeffe
TITLE: "LADY IN LOVE" (16" x 20"- oil on canvas)
This painting is about a reclining, modern Filipina lady, with dreamy outlook in life. She is a lady in love and gazing beautiful and lovingly at the full moon above her. The palm tree is bended into a sensual shape. This painting is an experiment in style and texture. It was influenced by Van gogh's impressionistic texture. It's very colorful and vibrant to behold like a Georgia O'Keeffe art.
ANOTHER VIEW OF THE PAINTING This is one of the three paintings I showed during a recent "Love Is In The Air" group art show at the Hyatt Valencia. Two are sunset oil paintings and this lady in love. There were many compliments on this painting especially from the guys.
" THE LADY IN LOVE" WITH THE ARTIST AT THE ART SHOW
"LADY MYRA IN LOVE" is the new title of this oil painting. Here are two Filipina friends during the art show. The lovely lady on the left is Myra Miranda, the present president of the SCV Filipino-American Association. The one on the right is Judy, the secreatary of the association. I displayed this paining during my solo art show last September 2008. Many admired this painting despite of many art competitors. When Myra saw this painting at my recent art show, she fall in love with it. The painting had a happy ending. I SOLD it to Myra. She bought it as a birthday gift for herself. Belated "Happy Birthday, Myra!" And she and the painting lived.....happily ever after. I am happy to sell my painting to someone special. I am sure I will still see the painting when I go to Myra's charming condo. Thank you Myra!
