Anarkali Virgo (2016) Original Acrylic Painting by Nicholas Robertson

The stimulus for this painting was a trip to India in 2014. The young women seen at the Qutub Minaret in Delhi and the Taj Mahal in Agra. Their anarkali dresses were so wonderfully colourful and their demeanour so naturally fresh. I work in acrylic because it allows me to experiment, making changes quickly is paramount when wishing to explore your options.
Painted on Fredrix Superior Rolled Canvas Board. Finished with a coat of Winsor & Newton Satin UV varnish, this not only protects the painting, but has a unifying effect. A suggested frame width of at least 60mm or more for this size painting. Narrow frames on large paintings have tendency to not sit well and have a habit of warping.
