Marie Antoniette
24” x 24” , Mixed Media on Canvas
Marie Antoinette has always fascinated me as a woman who became larger than her own story—remembered for beauty, extravagance, privilege, and ultimately tragedy. For this portrait, I wanted to capture both the spectacle surrounding her and the woman hidden beneath it.
Marie Antoinette called for abundance. I embraced color, texture, decorative details, and the excess associated with the world of Versailles. Through mixed media, collage, fabric, paint, and embellishment, I created a portrait that feels almost theatrical.
This painting will bring a sense of drama, color, femininity, and unapologetic opulence to any space. Created to be noticed, she is a statement piece for a room that celebrates individuality, beauty, and a touch of the unexpected.
