Medium
Painting - Acrylic On Canvas
Description
Inspired by Jojie Alcantara's image of an elderly Bagobo lady entitled Old, Wise and Wistful. In some way I felt a certain innocence in that lady when normally you don't attribute that description to time-wizened folks. That's when I decided to reverse everything. I took the idea back in time, painted in my own way of course, while substituting the original colors with their complementary pair. The result is closer to latin american tribal colors! I do hope that this doesn't offend anybody though.

I am fascinated...splendid expression, full of life.

Thanks again Evelina! Even if this is simply sort of a cartoonish style I am glad you caught the expression :-)

Very beautiful portrait Paul! love the colors and textures.
Paul Hilario replied:
Thanks Aimelle for your comment! If you can imagine it, the real colors of the image above are their complementary pair. So most of the colors should have been blue and red :-)
