Description
Matisse's Odalisque in Red Culottes has long been one of my favorite paintings. I have always wanted to recreate it with my own model. One day my wife (Karen) was laying on the couch and it struck me that she would make a wonderful Odalisque. I "borrowed" the striped couch and wallpaper from Matisse.

Hello Kevin, Thank you for your kind comment. I have just looked at all your works and am amazed how you manage to capture a moment so perfectly. Unlike many portraits, your smiling faces are alive and resemble a photograph snapshot far more than a painting. Congratulations to your unique work. Ingrid.
