Title: Lady With Fan
This is an acrylic study piece, Lady With Fan, after Jules Cheret. I love Cheret's posterized style and chose this particular one for it's elegance and simplicity. I hope to do more Cheret studies in the near future! For this painting, I used 140 lb. cold press watercolor paper.
