Acrylic on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Clearing out my mothers house and we came across some old slides. This photo of a beautiful lady took my breath away. The original had a very blurred background so I’ve decided to add to the artwork a tropical background. Taken in the late 60s her beauty is pure and overwhelmingly natural. My Samoan heritage this photo is what pushed me to paint this original artwork.

The painting in itself is bold and bright, she sparks happiness as you enter the room and you begin to wonder, what life was like on a tropical island all those years ago.
