I entered my 'WitchDoctor" painting into the Burra Art Gallery- Portrait Competition! The work is from a photo i took my my body painting entry into the Australian Body Art Carnivale, held in Eumundi, QLD.I didnt win a place, but heres a write up by Artivist:
“Witchdoctor” in oils by Brighde Taylor is a startling portrait of the artist’s
friend wearing body paint and a feathered head-dress low on the forehead,
causing the ear to stick out, engaging the viewers interest. The paint is too
thin for the power of the subject but this artist has a marvellous way with
organic textures, if not skin and sky. It will be interesting to see further
work from her in future exhibitions"

You might be wondering who made the wonderful head-dress! ??
