Description
On the third day he took me to the riverHe showed me the roses and we kissed
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
As he knelt above me with a rock in his fist
song (c) Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
This was for my final major project for my foundation year. I did a whole project based on the song (which can also been seen photographically here [link]
dunno why it's taken me so long to upload. I used photo ref but I can't find where I got it or w/evs soooo yes.
I actually illustrated the whole song. Maybe someday I'll upload it all but these are my favourite two I adore them they're hanging in large print in my roommm yay

btw, did you do the painting the background?

yes yes the background was originally done in oil pastles but it's actually blue/green colouring rather than yellow. I played about with the colours on photoshop and this is the result!
Thank you, wee comments from artists I've loved for years mean the world xx

I think it's almost my favourite bit! You should do more pieces with that stuff in it cause it's absolutely brilliant. Very Impressionistic, and the Impressionists are my *favourite* artists.
Any time, my darling. *hugs* I love your work too!

I guess that story does not have a happy ending. The art is lovely and very bright and proportioned.

Ok, I was just listening to this song.... that's creepy.
But anyway, back to the point, I think this is beautiful - the colour scheme, the poses, everything. You should be proud of this
