This oil on canvas has all my signature elements.....perspective, depth, textures , a feeling of fun and festivity.
It is inspired by a traditional doorway in the old, holy city of Varanasi, India.
The decorations on the doorway and on the traditional murals at the entrance are all painted in bright , happy colours.
There is a feeling of fun as the little girl is hiding behind the door waiting for her mother to surprise her!
There is beauty everywhere in Varanasi......in the crowds , in every little street , around every corner.
The beautifully painted doorways welcome all visitors.
