Esquema para bordar con abalorios sobre lienzo artístico (sin abalorios) «Diva»

“Diva” is a profile of a young woman in a flower wreath, wearing red beads and an embroidered shirt yoke.

What the picture shows

She is turned in profile to the left, her face painted in soft warm tones. Her hair is blue-white and streams outwards, scattered with small pale sparks. On her head is a wreath of pink roses and yellow flowers with green leaves and white ribbons. Around her neck are red patterned beads, and below them a wide embroidered shirt yoke: red and gold bands frame a lilac-pink field with a floral ornament. The background is deep, almost night-time blue. The beading is partial: beads cover the wreath, hair, necklace and embroidery, while the face, neck and blue background stay printed on the canvas.
