Turkish Romani Dancer


"Everything can be killed except nostalgia for the kingdom, we carry it in the color of our eyes, in every love affair, in everything that deeply torments and unties and tricks."
- Julio Cortazar

I painted this about 4 years ago. It is done in acrylics on canvas (which is about 4 ft tall). For some reason I actually enjoyed spending time painting all the embroidery and lace.
