Girl with Pearl Earring



This is a reproduction of Vermeer's Girl with the Pearl Earring that I did with soft pastels on cotton rag paper. It is a very soft-textured paper. When you layer the pastel lightly the colors blend nicely and the final layers go on smooth and look rather like oil paint. This painting is 20" x 30".
