Description
I'm leaving the story out, yet again.Have patience with me - this is the first painting of this kind I've ever made. A first time thing, in more than one way :]
I really -had- to use references for the background, and I hope it came out okay. It was a true challenge

I didn't think it was a photo - photo can't have such beautiful colors.
An excelent work with shadows - I like it very much.

I love this painting. so much potential. It has a "What next?" kind of appeal. The girl is going somewhere but where? Is she happy, dancing or pleading? Thanks for the post.

This is greatness.
You have managed to convey the notion of both sound and silence, light and shadow, life and death. I love the dreamy yet brooding feel to this that communicates the idea of euthanasia really well.
And I think the title is very suitable for this piece. At first glance, it seems like a bright and almost euphoric reverie, but upon longer examination, the darker tones of the piece really stand out.
A very deep piece of artwork indeed. Keep up the good work!

This is pretty wonderful.

Most excellent. I was inspired to start painting again after seeing your work from the early spoiled days. Your talent is exceptional. I am always aware myself that being able to paint is very different from having something to say. you seem to to have both.

Wow - definitely thought this was a photo before I fullview'd it.
Beautiful work!

This one is
Maybe a bit too dark on the body of the piper, and his head, nevertheless it's a very interesting composition!

Extremely mysterious. Technically the painting is perfect, but I'm intrigued by the concept.
Seems that something is happening outside or by the corridor...maybe the lady is playing some kind of requiem or fatal melody to a person who is dying or having a painful agony, to accelerate the moment of death.
The corridor maybe represents symbolically the death or the passage to afterlife, and the strong lights, the newcoming eternity.
Outstanding work, again!

Oooh, what a lovely picture! Everything about it is just so... Graceful. Blah, I don't really know how to describe it, but I love it. ^^
I only wish I could take the title seriously- Ages ago, I heard some joke about the "youth in Asia", and have never been able to hear the word without cracking up since... It was funny though...

I've always been fasinated by the word euthanasia, would like to name something that word, so I had to take a quick look at yours. I'm not dissapointed!

It is the title that gives this paintwork a depth far beyond the depth it already has. I'm also stunned you used refs for the background... not for the person then??

I've seen other paintings in oil that remind me of this one. Very nice and it is different to the others but it's about the debth I like

A very charming youth in Asia ....that's not the joke is it?

I don't know that you ever answer questions, but I was curious about the title? Is it Pan dancing himself off a ledge? or am I way off here?

The word 'euthanasia' comes from the Greek -- Eu, "good", and Thanatos, "death". Literally, "good death".
I am betting that this has nothing to do with the modern use of the word, but is refering to greek legend in some way, but I'm smurfed if I can figure just what at this time. I'll have to come back later.

Stunning work! It's one of those pieces that I can stare at for ages, and the more I do, the more I notice, and the more stories come to mind. Beautiful!

First I love your smooth drawingstyle! The dark and lightareas comes out very good, it seems realistic but on the other hand very mystic. Keep going your good work!
