Naked woman in a red chair - Alternative colourway


 I decided to put the print forward for a forthcoming group exhibition. While writing up the blurb for the label I realised that a lot of what this one is about is simplification. A couple of angles to suggest perspective, a flat red shape for the chair.

So I decided ti simplify the colours as well. Keep the red chair and then use browns for the other two - making the over all effect reddish. I'd got some purple in a jar from a recent failed print, so I used that as the basis for the brown, with more or less extender for the two shades,

The over all effect is more subtle than the "full colour" version, but I think it's better.
