Mary kalcic "Where Have You Been?" 8x10 painting

The person depicted in this painting is my beautiful and talented friend You Been Kim. She is an endless source of inspiration for me as she enjoys helping me actualize my visions and concepts as a model and motivates me in my endeavors with her own prolific artistic achievements. This image is from a photoshoot we took by the bay. Her long dark hair is blown by the wind from the sea and her expression is that of an explorer of dreams and far away worlds.
