Painting without a specific idea in mind, is a very good way of seeing what lies at the bottom of our subconscious. The time you spend on this kind of work, is not wasted. I think the opposite is true - the search is almost more important than the final result.
Besides - the canvas can always be repainted:)
You mentioned turning the canvas, it is very interesting. Back in art school we had a teacher who kept telling us that if the work is well composed you can turn it at will - and it will always look good. It was fun to watch him turn our drawings of figures, still lives with a chair etc. upside down.
I have turned your paintings around and I think there is something in it:) They look great in any configuration.
I like ears. It is one of the very characteristic parts of the body, like the hands or feet. The size of the ears as well as the nose, changes throughout life, so that not only does this feature distinguish us, but in old age these parts of the body become almost a satire of our original young self.
They have a lot of nerve endings, they are very sensitive to the touch, so you can safely say that it is a very intimate part of the body.
Plus, there are many interesting terms for ears - tapping, setting ears. Ears are curious and naughty:)
Forgive this rambling. The picture is beautiful, and as you can see above - it makes me think, a lot :D
I forgot to reply to you, but you wrote me such interesting things that I couldn't overlook it!
Every paragraph has an idea to respond haha. But I'll keep this one:
I never thought about the ears as a very intimate part of the body. You make me think a lot, and help me connect this point to a fundamental part of my work. You have really brought light to this work, thanks!!!! Now I find more sense here to that subconscious part that you mention a paragraph above. I am amazed today, as much as the day I read it the first time. You must know that you have touched a very intimate fiber that perhaps continues to resonate.🙂
Hi,
no worries at all, we all have things to taken care of:)
I am very glad, that my insight was somehow useful to you. I find your paintings very intellectually stimulating, which these days doesn't really happens a lot. News are everyday the same just disguised in different words, art is repetitive or lazy, or AI- ed. I find it frustrating.
I am really glad you are showing your work here:)
Thank you❤️!!! The same thing happens to me, so, I understand you🙂 .
As soon as I can, I will pay more attention here, because it seems much more interesting than other sites with similar content. It happens that today my attention is extremely scattered 😬😐
No problem at all!
It is hard to keep up with this place, so much content to dig through :)
May I borrow your words about this work? the part where you say that the ears are a very intimate part of the work.👇 🙂
Definitely, you can quote me if you like.
I am bit crazy about anatomy in general, and nervous system is especially fascinating to me:)
See you around!
