The intention for this painting was to paint an interior in the style of Mary Cassatt, the American Impressionist Painter from late 19th and early 20th Century. Mary befriended Edgar Degas and the other Impressionists, often funding their exhibitions from her wealth. Well, that's one way to get the good old boys to let you in. This painting is quite different from my usual style but I like it very much. I'm not sure that I was successful in channeling Cassatt, but I do think that I followed her maxim to "do what it takes to make a good painting".
"Mary's Bedroom" is an 11x14 inch painting on canvas.
I think you were "channeling" her very well! It definitely has the Impressionist feel!
