Description
I finally got my work back from the October shows, now I'm in the process of scanning all the images. This part sucks because I have a tiny scanner and work way to large.oh well, here is the first image I've scanned
it's 20"x31", done on Stonehenge printmaking paper mounted to masonite
I used watercolors for a base coat then rendered the skin with prismacolor pencils
after that I busted out the house paint (Behr) for the sea and sky
then I moved on to the hair with marker and a bit if acrylic
I finished it up with washes of water based oil

I like this a lot. It strikes me as so amazing that the black hair and the
ship make perfect soul mates. You have found an very interesting
set of 'pairs' that makes me envious. Wish I had discovered it...
Enjoy the journey... dick green

I don't know why, but my eyes keep wandering over this pictures in endless circles around her face, always landing on her eyes, half closed, half open, you can only see the white. there is something about the way she looks (at who knows what, maybe at nothing at all), which makes me wonder, if she's even alive. the pale blue skin, the way her hair flows around her create the impression of her being under water. drowning, dying.
but at the same time, there is this thing, I can't say what, which tells me, she could be dangerous as well. like she is the one who kills, not the one, who had been killed.
my mind creates a story about her. the girl dead and alive at the same time, banned in the sea, painting it black with those who lay an eye on her.
it's kind of strange I guess. but I can't help it. I'm affected by pictures like that. pictures, that are a little to brilliant to handle.
this one is kind of crashing me down. in a good way. (if that makes any sense) damn, it's hard to describe this in english.
anyway: brilliant work.

I have recently started painting, in hopes that I would be as good as my father.
It's overwhelming, to say the least.
But this is just wonderful.
Very inspiring.<3
