This started out as an experiment I wasn't really expecting much out of, but I ended up liking it enough to post it here.
I used a vintage photograph as reference for the pose, and as it's mainly an experiment with technique there isn't much more behind this image. However, I find she closely resembles an idea I had in mind for a painting I want to do of the Slavic goddess of spring, Vesna (using my good friend Vesna as model, of course My paternal grandfather is Serbian and I've taken part in his customs and traditions growing up. It's a part of my heritage I'm interested in exploring further through my art. Watercolour and various inks (white, mostly... still in love with that) on watercolour paper. 19x15 inches. Daily DeviationGiven 2008-04-02The combination of watercolor and ink really give From The Earth by ~Kaelycea a gritty and whimsical look. The grittiness of the piece still adds to the spring like feel, and is a wonderful representation of stolen spring moments. (Featured by ^oilsoaked) |
