Fire in Her Hair - A Rebirth of Venus

-
I've always been inspired by the Birth of Venus, by Botticcelli, so I decided to make - not a copy - but a "modernized version"..of her face....a version that would travel from the time of Botticelli to ours, yet retain her air. I therefore saturated the complementary colors present in the original painting and emphasized the line.
It's one of my favorite paintings, for its vibrant colors and calm mood. It moves yet it stares at us as it moves.
If you enjoy it as much as I have, you can get a canvas print of it, posters, or other printed home decor and stationery items at Fine Art America, where I have one of my little shops.

Thanks for your support and thanks for visiting!

Sets for competition (or self-challenge!) have to follow rules regarding size of the board, position and size of the hole, and size and weight of the bean bags. For example, the "regulation" board must measure 2 ft x 3 ft and the "bean" bag must actually must be filled with corn kernels and be square and weight 1 lb and measure 6 inches x 6 inches. You can build one yourself, or buy a regulation or informal board set from var...
