Usually revered for his social satire and modern masterpieces, here Hamish Blakely has created a romantic portrait of a woman using warm and soft tones that reinforces its own naturalism.

Offset by a textured abstract background, the highly polished and technically sublime figure harks back to Renaissance and Baroque nudes painted by such masters as Caravaggio. A master of his medium, Hamish’s incredible artistic career has seen him work as a professional illustrator for celebrated author Thomas Keneally among others.

Framed in elegant black, this original artwork also comes signed and adds a simultaneously classic and contemporary element to any wall.
