Every so often a model askes to sit for me with their musical instrument. I’ve painted two violins and Julika with her cello. I’ve mention before how much I admire Gauguin and The Portrait Of Fritz Scheklud. I chose my oranges based on his for this piece. I’m very found of the work in the back, the reflected light from the cello.
