SKU: 2024—Robyn Halvorsen & Tom Houghton, Atelier Portrait Category:

This one-of-a-kind original oil on copper painting was created by New Orleans artist Emilie Rhys 2019, during several live portrait sessions, and again in 2023 at the artist's French Quarter art studio. It is painted on a copper sheet specially prepared by the artist, using etching tools to incise the surface. This enhances the final image by providing randomly-derived surface texture.

The artist resumed work on the painting in 2023, working from memory as she added thick paint to the copper plate.
