"With this piece I wanted to combine the different styles in oil painting into one portrait but yet pulling off a composition and color that would blend these techniques together. This painting was created in December of 2013 and exhibited at Copro gallery in Los Angeles and Scope New York. It was part of my “Spectre†series which was primarily themed around ghostly apparitions of female portraits. Some taken from real stories, others free styled what came in mind. This is also my first painting in which it contains all of my styles of laying down oil." - Dan Quintana
