BRIGITTE AND THE ROSE   (oil)

Ian Macdonald  Iain Macdonald Art oil paintings pastels

This painting originated with a photo of Brigitte, an old friend of mine from my walking safari days in Zambia, who was visiting me  with her husband Philippe. We had just come back from a visit to the Honde Valley and were all sitting on the verandah of a friend's house having a drink and there was this stunning red rose growing in a flower bed below us. The juxtaposition of Brigitte's bare feet and the rose created an interesting subject.
