Yellow Chinese Panel

I have spent several days at the V & A museum over the past 6 months, and this yellow silk Chinese Robe really appealed to me. I am combining elements of antique and current ceramics with the details of the silk robe and its embroideries in a new Panel piece. The panel is mixed media, as usual; oil on Thai paper with a final resin coating. I will be posting some photos of the work in progress in the next few days, so watch this space!
