So I watched about Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat in YouTube and red about them. What passionate Artists they were.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">After all, sudden I wanted paint very simple design with Oil matiere\/thick paint on 24\u00e2\u20ac\u009d x 24\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Gallery Wrapped Canvas. I picked the design of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Woman\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Back\u00e2\u20ac\u009d again. When I was painting, I was not thinking anything else, but painting. It was conversation with paints.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">I named this painting &#8220;Woman in passion&#8221;. After the paint was dried, I took to Tim. He displayed\u00c2\u00a0the painting in his window, and it was sold.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The lady owns business building in Fort Bragg purchased it. She must be passionate person. I love to meet her in person sometime soon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Well all these paintings owners are women.
