This is a faithful reproduction of a water stain
left by a wet bathing suit
on a black piece of cardboard.
(See the ART HAPPENZ scan of the original stain).
It is actually a photo-realistic rendering of
the stain and thus it is shown in the House of Realism.
It took roughly 500 hours over 3 months to paint.
I had to create a blinder system of a tiny rectangle in cardboard that was placed over the stain to enable me to refind that exact spot, once I looked away to paint on the canvas.....   The water stain was greenish/grey. However, the green was replaced with cobalt and prussian blue for the painting. Note... due to blue overloads... My PC scanner could not accurately scan this piece.
