Signed on the front.

On a trip to Bali, the artist is overwhelmed by the vibrant colours and activity. Surrounded by exotic birds, buddhas and temples, Balinese dancers, curious fish, monkeys and fighting cocks, she is a world away from life back in Sydney. This large and chaotic painting is a spontaneous response to the memories from that trip. This painting was a finalist in the Portia Geach Portrait Prize 2012

All art by Josephine Josephsen

A medieval technique used for icon work, I workshopped in Italy. Rabbit skin glue gesso is applied in many layers to seasoned timber panel; more layers of Armenian red earth bole; then water-gilded 23kt gold leaf, burnished and tooled; painted with egg tempera; then sealed with epoxy resin to protect delicate surface. This Madonna is referenced from Botticelli's 15th century work.
