Beautiful portraits by Charmaine Olivia
Charmaine Olivia’s paintings speak to us in a voice that is tinged with the rhythms of an Oedipus Complex. The voice often comes from a young female subject whose intent is uncertain in nature, creating a desire in the viewer which follows us long after we’ve left earshot of the subject’s enticing voice and undeniable gaze.

The gaze of the first illustration is so captivating! It reminds me of my artist friend from Montreal Jimmy Baptiste http://www.montrealinfashion.com/2010/12/i-like-art-type-girl-illustrator-jimmy.html
