Painter puts an artistic touch to Georgia Straight's Macbeth cover

Artist, photographer, and filmmaker Steph Leigh Limage has let us know she was so inspired by seeing the South African opera Macbeth at the PuSh International Performing Arts Festival, not to mention the Straight's recent cover image about the show, that she put brush to paper.

Shown here is the result, meticulously hand-painted in oils. "Was epic detail but I loved the show," she let us know.

Our feature about the politically charged, Democratic Republic of Congo-set Third World Bunfight production, a copresentation of PuSh with Vancouver Opera and the Italian Cultural Centre, is here.

Our own cover is below.
