Girl with a Yellow Scarf Print

This painting was created on primed canvas, stretched over a wooden frame. The sides of the canvas are painted the same dim, bottle-green, with slight variation so that they do not stand out as more dead than the front of the painting. The painting does not have mounting hardware attached, but there is a slight gap between front canvas and frame, such that the painting can be hung on a pair of nails quite securely. The frame is also sturdy enough to support hammering or drilling in small nails. I have a habit of looking through a lot of vintage photographs that have passed into the public domain in old books and such, with an eye out for finding inspiration in them. I found this girl in a group in one such photo, and I loved the look she has–a kind of awareness and understanding–and the way her headscarf was draped was striking. The title's awareness of Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring is more something that people kept pointing out to me afterward than something that I worked into the painting from the start, but I can see the connection–a certain repose, and a certain quality of light, with the personality focused around a key, beautiful prop.
