Work Description: 
In this realistic portrait of Patricia Garsky Still, Still paints the sitter wearing a dark navy blue dress with a deep v-cut neckline. The blue color of the dress is offset by its golden yellow neckline detail and sash around her waist. Patricia sits on the left side of a green sofa with her legs crossed and her hands clasped in her lap. She wears gold earrings, ruby-red lipstick to match her fingernails, and her hair is done up in an elaborate coiffure.
