Around this time I was very interested in desaturated colors and the retro vibe I got out of it. At the same time while sampling colors straight from aging art works I came across a book called "Masterpieces of Japanese Prints" and took note of some of the accessories and patterned fabrics that defined the contours of the human figures, then I made it my own. When I carefully laid out the figure to establish her teasing posture, I exercised my hand and eye coordination while wasting no time to fill in and around the figure with designs. Mostly Victorian based since that was the last intensive study I did while I was an apprentice of a Faux Finisher.
