Using an idea that I used in ‘The Lute Player’, which was inspired by Picasso’s ‘Seated Woman’, I have used a basket weave and various pattern making to translate the shape of the stepmothers body. I was trying for a hollowed out effect. It may be interesting to extend this to the whole composition. It may or may not provide a springboard for further ideas.
