The social entanglements continue in this book set in Sydney, Australia. I had several models perform as they would at a cocktail party. I used two women and one man, they tried out a various poses, I changed the appearance of secondary characters to look like a crowd of different people. It was compositionally fun painting the foreground couple in shade and upstaging the blonde woman in the light. The famous Sydney Opera House is certainly symbolic of Australia, and a good setting for s social evening scene.
