Girl In a Jar

I painted this from a photo that I took at Dr sketchy nottingham. You can see my 10 minute drawing of the same pose further back on my blog. The performer is Amelie Soleil from the Freyed Knot group.
I am pleased with this one, I think it my most successful piece since I began with Oils again last year.
