Fenway Park (after Matisse)

Pairing:
Small Odalisque in Purple Robe by Henri Matisse
Image of Fenway Park

Acrylic on canvas
Dimensions: 38" x 35"

Artist's Insights:
You managed to include the fans, the Green Monster, and the playing field with a focus on home plate in this pairing while giving a large space to Matisse's Odalisque.

Yes, it's a panoramic view. As I started to put the elements together, I found that I was attracted more by the bold lines in the harem girl's coat than by the action in the stands or on the field. I wanted to give her more focus. Ironically, she's looking away from the action although it could be argued that this is because the game has not yet started.

Original for sale.
