A Corset, a Masque and a Mystery.

Everyone loves a woman in a Corset, especially if she is also wearing suspenders and stockings too! Add a few accessories like silk panties peeking out from under the laced, ribbed Corset, and a pair of long fingerless opera gloves, (She wants to show off her long painted nails), and there she is, my Lady in a Masque.
But what are the vines that bind her to the landscape? Is she part of the landscape, or is this a Mardi-Gras costume?

It has been a while since I drew a Lady in pretty Lingerie, so it was about time I returned to the subject.

And why not, everyone likes corsets and suspenders!!!

...whoa, momma! She's a pretty gal, indeed.
And I got more news fer ya....with nails like she's sporting, only a fool would say different.
At least, within her reach!

Mardi Gras, huh? OK.
I thought just dressed to enjoy around the house. Like watching the super bowl, or something....

Oh yeah. I forgot to ask you a serious question...Do you know how good you are? No, seriously. Watercolors are possibly the hardest paint medium to master and you seem to just cruise through your pictures like a hawk through the sky!
I LOVE this stuff!

Thank you for the lovely comments Dimitri, and yes, Mardi Gras time is here!
I`m glad to see that the Mardi Gras celebrations in New Orleans are continuing this year.
It`s really important.

Masterpiece!

Zeppellina said...

Thank you Polanck, but the image of the Picasso you have on your site is magnificent!
Good to have you drop into the site, I hope you will be back .

This is really excellent, too. She melds into the tree; the leaf patterns continue on her; her armlets (or strings, like on the bodice?) raise up to become branches for the tree...

I also really like the softness of the green coloration in the tree juxtaposed with the very strong lines in the rest of the drawing.

Cool! Keep working!
