This is my newest painting, done for the July show in Asheville - I really, really love it. A young woman shares the room with Picasso's "Nude Under a Pine Tree", in the Art Institute of Chicago.

Amazing that you captured THIS woman - in front of THIS painting! Do these people ever know you have painted them? If so, they should feel honored! It's fantastic!

You have really outdone yourself in both "Curves" and "Under Cover", Karin! What perfect people in front of the perfect paintings! If they weren't actually there, they should have been!

This painting is fantastic! I absolutely loved it! I agree - what a perfect pairing of art annd life. This one should fly off the Gallery wall for you.

Karin, the fleshtones, the brushwork, the resonance between the Picasso and the figure... all simply fabulous.

Thanks for all the comments - makes me very proud of this piece. Also, being somewhat round myself, I wanted to confirm that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes.
