Confessions of a Madame Painting

I found one of my grandmother's antique figurines she collected; I painted the figurine as I imagined her life and all she's seen through the years being displayed on the wall for at least 70 years. The image showcases a painting featuring a figure that appears to be a young girl or woman dressed in a historical or traditional costume. The artwork is vibrant and executed with visible brush strokes, giving it an impressionistic or expressionistic feel. The dominant colors are shades of red, black, and white, with touches of yellow and green. The subject stands center-frame and is captured mid-twirl, her skirt billowing out around her. She's portrayed wearing a yellow dress with a red bodice and white embellishments, including what appears to be a ruffled collar and cuffs. Her skirt features floral patterns. Her face is delicately rendered with pink cheeks and detailed eyes, contrasting with the more abstracted and loosely painted background. The background is largely abstract, with swipes of black and red paint creating a dynamic and somewhat moody atmosphere. It suggests movement and a sense of energy, which complements the spinning motion of the figure. Despite the rough abstraction of the background, the figure is rendered with a degree of detail that draws the viewer's focus.
