Femme en Rouge

Description

The story of Femme en Rouge

Femme en Rouge is not walking away in defeat. She is walking toward the life she decided she deserved.

I created her while imagining myself leaving behind everything that no longer served me: the relationships, the situations, and the people who had diminished my peace.

She represents the moment survival becomes a decision to rise. Her back is turned because she no longer needs permission, validation, or closure from what she leaves behind. She moves forward with purpose, fiercely protecting herself and her children, determined to lead them toward something safer, stronger, and more beautiful.

The red is not simply sensual. It carries passion, courage, defiance, and the fire it takes to reclaim your life. She is the woman who finally understands a hard truth: protecting her future may require walking away from her past.

24 × 30″ Exclusive Edition — Hand-Embellished Canvas

The closest a print can come to the original. Each canvas leaves my studio with additional highlights and finishing touches painted by my own hand, so no two in the edition are identical.

• Strictly limited to 15 canvases
• 24 × 30″ giclée on artist canvas, gallery-wrapped and stretched, 1.5-inch depth
• Solid black edges — the image is not mirrored around the sides
• Hand-embellished by Ashley Karno with highlights and finishing touches; embellishment details finalized with each collector
• Hand-signed and individually hand-numbered
• Certificate of Authenticity included
• Arrives ready to hang; no frame needed
• Colors may vary slightly from screen to canvas
• Once all 15 find homes, the edition closes permanently

The Certificate of Authenticity applies to this hand-embellished canvas edition. It does not authenticate or convey ownership of the original painting.

Shipping

• I inspect and embellish every canvas myself before it leaves the studio
• Each canvas ships boxed, corner-protected, and wrapped for its size and destination
• Because each piece is hand-finished, please allow 2–3 weeks before your canvas ships; you receive tracking once it is on its way
• International shipping is available; customs duties, taxes, or import fees are the recipient’s responsibility
• If your canvas arrives damaged, contact us within seven days with photos of the artwork and packaging, and we will make it right
