This exquisite mid-century oil on velvet painting features a captivating portrait of a young green-eyed woman. The painting's black velvet creates depth and dimensional from the teal light backlighting the young model and accents her red hair and blue eyes creating a feeling of mystery and allure.
Velvet painting is an ancient technique, and took on a new popularity in the United States in the Mid-20th century.
