Officially titled Tip Your Hat in ode to the photographer and model whose phenomenal work inspired the painting, this stunning entity is simply known to me as Marion.
I first saw Marion’s picture in 2013 on the cover of a magazine while taking a flight for work. The picture spoke to me with such intensity that it was love at first sight and I knew I had to paint her.
Her irrefutable beauty that instilled me with carnal yearning was not the only reason I was attracted to this subject. Her expression and entire demeanour bewildered and intrigued me. This fact, in and of itself, made her one of the most desirable subjects I had ever seen.
Her captivation was unwavering to me and I stared at her for the entire flight trying to decipher what she was trying to say. The lack of just a single dimension to her message fascinated me so much that the more I looked at her, the more I fell in love with her.
By the time I had reached my destination, she was seared into my conscious and subconscious. Every day since, she has been on my mind.
7 years passed from the day I decided I was going to paint her and now she has finally materialised. A journey not taken lightly.
Every stroke of the brush in every section was placed with care while she looked over me and my work. From her smooth skin to her fiercely piercing blue eye to her passionately parted red lips all the way up to her stylishly tipped hat, I was determined to do her justice while trying to ensure whoever sees her will feel the desire, love and the level of the intrigue I did. She deserves that much and more.
