Hello, friends!
Finally I got to painting!
I had originally intended to do a painting of an image in my mind I've been thinking about for quite a time, but I couldn't find a reference photo of the exact pose I wanted the model to be in, so I started looking through stock poses on DeviantArt and found this beautiful pose.
I love how she's reaching for something, and from that grew another idea.
Here's the painting in proper colours, photo taken in daylight:
Of course, the meaning of the painting is obvious to me only, but in hopes that you might share your versions, I will remain cryptic as that.
What do you think of the painting?
Let me know!
Have a terrific day, lovely people!
You are very talented...hmm if I would take a guess at the meaning I would say: She is a lady that lived her life at the beach or in the water somehow, always trying to get to the land but never being able to reach it because she is always being pulled back into the water. 😀 Well that's what I make out of it.
Thank you, you're so sweet!
It's so interesting to hear your version! 😊 I assume it's because of the colours. As I was painting, I was considering whether the tone of blue would evoke associations of water or the sky. 💙
She is definitely longing for something. That, I think, is captured in her pose.
Very nice painting, first i was guessing it will be a boat lol
Say hello to Braliukas, hope he is good too!
Artakush misses Baltic states in the bush...
Thanks, Baltic buddy! 😊 ❤️
I'll forward him your hellos!
NİCE MUSIC !
Thanks! Picking music for the video is always the interesting part of editing. :) Glad you like it!
Nice painting Madame ! And nice usage of the putty :)
Thanks, Fox! 😊
Oh, it's so fun to use it, I wonder if I could 'sculpt' a face out of it, giving it a three-dimensional look. One day, one day.
Very beautiful and touching. And looking at you paint is very enjoyable for me :) ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Aww, thanks, Anne, so much! ❤️
Its a really beautiful painting, the funny thing is, that i liked the look at 1.09 Minutes more than the finishd one.
But of causen its your painting and you have to like it. And I like the finished one too.
Sorry if my English is not so good, Hello from Germany
Hey! Thanks for stopping by!
You know, I also appreciate the unfinished look of paintings. There are artists that have unfinished pieces as finished works of art, and I think it gives a very interesting idea on what we consider to be a finished piece.

scrrrrr painting its good
Lovely painting Kate. I see a woman diving into water, but the water is above her and that's kinda weird.
Thank you, Cams! Ooh, an interesting idea. In case of the blue being water, it is of a harder structure, as she can rip it off piece by piece.
I painted it thinking the wall is the sky. But I love when people bring up their ideas, because a painting tells a different story to each and every viewer.
la imagen transmite los anhelos de una chica hacia el universo, te felicito buen gusto por la musica
Thanks for noticing the music, too. 😊
From what I understand, your version is very close to how I intended the painting. She is yearning for unveiling 'the curtain'. As you can see, she's already managed to break off the bits of it. :)
