Portrait of Anna: Anna once (front), Anna twice (back)

Anna: twice, April 2011. 17.5 " x 25" or 44.5 cm x 63.5 cm Egg tempera over traditional gesso on panel.

This is a work in progesss. Currently, the back side of every panel has been developed as a ghosted back and mirrored image of the front. Everything kept soft and low. The strong colors, full contrast and diversity of the front side are now in marked contrast to the subtle, soft unity of the back. The challenge will be to develop it further texturally but still maintain a softly contrasted unity.
