Description
A vision came to me one day and I sketched it out, found the lace, and took old sheet music from my library to make this picture. The young lady in the photograph is unidentified. Based on the style of the furniture, the young lady's hair style and her clothing, the time the photo was taken was between early 1940 and early 1950. She appears to be reading a book and I can see her lost in memories. She hears music from a time similar to what she is reading and she sees herself in a fine satin dress covered in lace. Her mind floats back to a special time of piano music playing, of laughter and all while she is wearing a lace covered satin dress. The room where she sits is full of "Floating Memories". The sheet music, like the photo, gives a hint of the time period, but is elusive of a specific date. Piano keys are slightly revealed through part of the lace from her dress and part of a partial treble and a base clef float on the canvas as to illustrate the thoughts going through her head. You should be able to see the movement and hear the sound of her thoughts when viewing this painting. I chose the mixed media, rather than paint alone, because I feel it better depicts the mood I was feeling when putting this art piece together.
