Japanese lady closing the bar

The is called "Japanese Closing the Bar". Must check to see if I can sell it because I painted this from a photo I got from a copyright-free and royalty-free web site, but still uncertain of the laws. No idea who even took this photo, it was within tens of thousands of others photos.

I love the simplicity here again, the contrast of the warm colors of the bar and her face, and the cool outfit she is wearing. The radiator in the back, chairs stacked up, you know it's very quiet in here now, all the noisy people have left. Her face is 3" high and had to be repainted several times to get the likeness. Hope you enjoy it too.
