‘Inspired Series’ card by Karin Taylor
Gypsy is a mixed media painting on canvas textured paper. She has been hidden away in my studio for a while now, awaiting her final touches. It turned out, she was finished and didn’t need anymore work…I hope you like her. I created this painting after I’d read of the gypsy clans who settled here and still roam Australia, a little known fact. It is in fact interesting, how many Aussies came from a gypsy background.
Gypsy belongs to the following groups:

Oh, i just realise there are two meaning for “piece of work”, one good and the other bad. I meant the good one of course which is remarkable or outstanding! Just to clarify. :D

thank you very much for your lovely comment on Gypsy anna, much appreciated…I have to ask what does ‘Le temps des gitannes’ translate as? :D
annacuypers, 8 months ago
Oops, sorry, it means ” time of the gypsies ”; That’s how the lovely movie, by Emir Custurica was called here in Belgium. My grandparents’ parents were also gypsy. So I’m feeling related to them. This work I see as a tribute.
Cheers,
Anna

Thank you so much for translating it Anna :) haven’t heard of the movie before, and wonder if it came to Australia? I’d like to see it…....I am just amazed and thrilled to hear that you are descended from the gyspies!

Stories of the gypsies have always intrigued me.
I love the mystery surrounding them and their history.
I like their music too. Your gypsy is fitting with their
culture and simply adorable as is all your work.

In my journey I have learned determination trumps ability. Ability trumps talent. Talent trumps mediocrity. Importantly, you always succeed when preparation meets opportunity

I think this one has to be my favourite of yours thus far. I love the way the reds/oranges and black work so well together. Gives it a semi sombre feel.
