Modern Orientalism - Original ACEO

   Tue, June 3, 2008 - 12:59 PM
This is an ACEO (Art Cards, Editions and Originals) I began late Sunday night and completed Monday. It's a homage to contemporary Tribal Fusion belly dancers and to the Orientalist trends in art over the past few centuries, particularly in Art Nouveau style pieces and in the art of people like Erte.

I really enjoy the theme and hope to explore it a bit further in future ACEOs. I don't think this is my best work, but I wanted to show that I am in fact still alive and making artwork ;)

The original drawing is available for sale at my Etsy shop! www.etsy.com/view_listing.php

Size: 2.5" x 3.5"
Media: pen & ink, watercolor, colored pencil

this is a lovely work, and I think you're selling it waaaay too cheap for an original!

Awww....thank you Tempest! Unfortunately, at least at the moment, I would be hard pressed to get someone to buy it at higher than the current rate.
