Woman’s Silhouette with Round Backlight – Art print of an oil painting. With this painting, I wanted to experiment with bright light and high contrast interactions. I wanted the portrait subject to be framed by a light behind her, experimenting with some light effects on the subject and to the viewer (like the blue and yellow around the edges). I also wanted to mess around with the light effects through sheer fabric. These are themes I’ve explored before, but I think this is one of my best implementations to date and is a painting I really enjoyed.
Additional Details: Original oil painting by Jon Amdall using alla prima direct painting technique, Utrecht brushes, Gamblin and Utrecht paints, and Strathmore paper. Art prints are from FinerWorks on their Premium Giclee thick (21-mil) heavy weight (310g) paper. Scans of originals are 720 DPI, 48 bit color, to capture the smallest details and textures.

For example, for paintings that were originally square, I’ll offer a few square size options, then some cropped vertical or horizontal choices.
