Comments by the artist

With this picture I first planned out the pose with charcoal pencil then I painted the tones with varying intensities of sepia ink. I resisted the temptation to outline everything with my ink nib (which I normally do) and it has a softer look as a result. See a more detailed version of Sepia girl (Sepia ink figure painting) on my new website.

'The portrait is one of the most curious art forms. It demands special qualities in the artist, and an almost total kinship with the model.' - Henri Matisse
