This is such a tranquil and beautiful painting. Love the way
you've the clouds reflecting on the tidal pool. And that background!
One can almost hear the sound of the waves as they break upon the shore.
She is the very essence of pure natural innocence.

Thank you! I had fun with this one, but it was a struggle to get the water to look half-way decent, so I'm very happy to hear that it looks good to you

You're most welcome!
I believe you've done an excellent job in depicting the sea.
I particularly like the way that you've portrayed the waves breaking
on the rock formations. Very realistic!

Are all these adult females painted? Does it vary from tribe to tribe?

Well, this picture is just kind of a generic symbolic image -- It's not connected with the tribal pictures, but since you asked, the body paint can vary somewhat -- Usually it is only the females who are painted, but males will sometimes paint themselves for certain festivals, rituals, etc. And there are different painting styles from village to village -- That's one of the ways they can tell who comes from where...

Do these deer tribes like massages? Those are probably a low-tech way for them to feel good...

Hmmm... Hadn't thought about it, tbh...

It also is a lot cleaner than mating for pleasure.

Sounds cool -- I have to confess ignorance, though! Can you tell me who the author is?
P.s. Thanks very much for the Fav on the other piece

This is lovely! Her expression really sets the mood in this piece. The seascape is beautiful (especially with a nude deer lady) and the overall scene is well laid out.

Thanks most kindly! This started off as a figure painting, but became much more about the background Glad you like the nude deer lady!

I really get the feeling of freedom by this picture. It reminds me of the stone coast on Rügen I literally can smell the sea

Thank you! The setting is based on a favorite beach I used to visit when I lived in California. Here's a pic of the rock in the background: 4.bp.blogspot.com/-5qBUm9UhmJU…
I looked at some pictures of Ru:gen -- It's really beautiful. Seems like a landscape out of Lord of the Rings!

it's just like you submerged into a fairy tale while walking through the open bright woods of beeches. the mix of dark brown tree trunks and branches the green leafs in front of the blue sky and sea who lay under these white cliffs is just an amazing scenery. Caspar David Freidrich painted this scenery also a few times and wonderfully captured the moments you just don't want to end.
I would so much love to live there, but not just because of nature you can also find in the stone beaches a lot of fossils.

That sounds really nice -- the best of both land and sea. I know Caspar David Friedrich, but I had to look up his paintings of Ru:gen. The two or three that I saw were amazing. That man was a true poet, and not confined by the style of his time.
It would be cool to find a fossil -- I have found a few Indian arrowheads, but never any fossils

ancient craftsmanship is awesome too, But to find such things I live in the wrong part of Germany (I'm in the north).
Where I live it's more common to find snails and mussels in limestone, Complete fossils are rare, but not unusual. In the southern regions like Bayern, it's more possible to find arrows and other smaller stuff.

I would love to find a fossil snail or mussel

I know in the USA ist possible to find ammonites in a lot of places, good states for finding bigger fossils and real dinosaur bones are for example Utah. I know there are a lot of dig sites.

Well, there are fossils to be found in this country, but I don't know where to look for them As you say, the western states are supposed to be good places for fossils. Also Pennsylvania.
I have heard that one can find fossils on the shore of the North Sea -- Is that right?

that is a rumor I sadly can't really confirm (because I was in my life only two times there and I was really small back then).
I know it's possible to find fossil shark teeth and new shark teeth but I never heard of bigger fossils.

That's still pretty cool --Thanks

No problem^^ it's kinda cool to talk about such stuff with someone, so I have to thank as well :3

I love this in that it's very conceptual. Not sure what words I'm really going for lol

Thanks very much! It's kind of a general statement about "the voyage of life," but with a nude deer lady thrown in for good measure...!
