This is my finished piece for Klimtomania, a challenge to recreate the painting "Emilie Floege" by Gustav Klimt, similar to the Van Gogh challenge.
10 artists participated this time. Here is the link to a photo album I made: http://picasaweb.google.com/THaubric...ey=e60H9C4jSN4
I incorporated original Japanese Washi paper to make her dress, because Klimt was influenced by Japan (Japonisme), which was quite common in that time.

Hi Thea,
I am totally enchanted because of this picture. You managed to give back the essence of the picture brightly. Brilliant colours, his rustic texture. Delightful.
