Portrait comparison study





Left my "Girl with a Headdress", right Vermeer's "Girl with a Pearl Earing". Mine was done in acrylic on 61x61cm canvas in 2020. Vermeer's was done in oil on 44x39cm canvas circa 1665. Love to hear your thoughts.

When it rains outside, it is a perfect time to paint. I did this in less than a week. Della is an indonesian big screen actress and I did this to see how far I can push acrylic paints to make portraiture

BEAUTIFUL EYES - ACRYLIC ON CANVAS 30X40CM, 2018



I am always fascinated by Balinese dance. This painting was inspired by the colorful make-up, costume and facial expressions of one such dance - the Legong. Flashes, glares and side-peeks of the eyes are all integral part of Legong. I made this painting to capture Legong's beauty and richness.
