About the Item
Artist Comments
A woman exudes timeless elegance with her white sunglasses and bold red lipstick. Paint drips from the beach towel wrapped around her hair, suggesting the presence of water. The portrait's warm palette and loose brushstrokes capture the chic atmosphere of a summer day in the South of France. The artwork comes with a matte white wood frame measuring 1.5 inches deep and 0.75 inches thick.
About the Artist
Malia Pettit sees her artistic process as an act of “liberating the paint†and “allowing for the unexpected to occur.†Her portraits of women stem from a fascination with glossy magazines and their portrayal of models, actors and celebrities. Her work has been especially influenced by Chantal Joffe and John Singer Sargent. She currently resides in Louisiana after having lived in both California and England for several years. When she’s not painting, she is a full-time mom and enjoys exploring estate sales, antique stores and used bookstores.
