Haven't done a long pose practice session in a long time so it was really fantastic knuckling down to bring this pose through all the nuances that are generally left behind when doing one of my short gesture drawings... Attention was given to sensitive soft edges (with carefully chosen defined accents ). Without fiddling with the details of the hand in the foreground, the eye is free to be led up and down the figure.. the perspective enhanced by the barely rendered feet in the distance... SOLD
Ok folks, thanks so much for the visit!.. :D Another favourite of mine I have been holding on to, but the time has come!.. This piece highlights our social and 'anti' economic system which profits and inevitably encourages detrimental effects to our environment and health. Personal Collection Thanks for dropping by!.. :)
Ok, after more than 3 years from conception to completion, I was really, really reluctant to let this one go. However the time had to come sometime. I love all my pieces and I'd get nowhere just hording all of them. They were meant to be seen and I hope this one finds an uber loving home!.. Personal Collection More info and Work in Progress pictures can be viewed at Dragon Eye Reflection of Creation !
Thanks for the visit!.. :) p.s. Since posting this I changed my mind and decided I was going to continue keeping this piece in my private collection. Who knows maybe I'll let it go when I'm old n grey.. :) This piece evolved from a modeled study of the chair. Modeled studies focus attention on the feeling of weight of the subject, and I tried to develop this thought process further by getting the viewer to perceive the weight/manner of the departed subject, from foorprints left behind alone...
SOLD Gustav Klimt has always been an inspiration with his mixture of realism, abstraction and symbolism, and is certainly one of my most favourite artists . Thus when I was conceiving an image that would best convey the concept I had in mind, I felt his well know ‘Death and Life’ painting was a perfect base , as any omissions (such as Death) or changes would be instantly recognized and enrich the concept of the piece.
Read more at 'Life' where I have included images of this piece in progress, so do check it out!.. Thanks for the visit!.. :) The concept of time & space has always fascinated me and so age old philosophies and scientific theories on the subject have been an almost constant reading companion and theme in my work for many years... Although many of my works have elements of this idea melded in with other varying contexts, this I feel is the first piece that is completely focused on the concept of time alone... Hi there!... This detailed lil' conceptual piece is now on Daily Paintworks!.. :D Multiple layers of thin translucent hue were applied, drying between layers, to create this turquoise gem of crystal clear sea water realism, melded with abstractions of pure white refracted reflections of light.... 'Reflections' ACEO
