GIRL IN BLACK STOCKINGS

I love the classic theme with a woman sitting in an armchair, and quite often turn to it. In this case, I created a young red-haired woman in black stockings and a black silk lingerie sitting on a chair. The rather provocative character of the subject is enhanced by these details, so that the dressed model seems more undressed than the nude model. In this artwork, almost all the extra details are missing. Nothing distracts from the character of this young woman. Here, as in many of my paintings, the influence of the style of the 30s is noticeable: a clear line, local color relationships, even the character of the model reminds that time. In this painting I used the classic combination of colors: white, ocher, English red and black. The artwork is painted in several layers with attention to detail.
