Death and Life
Made this painting a little while ago.

The woman in your painting almost looks like she has wings adn yet there is a line connecting her to something? I love the bold colours :-) When I look at this piece I get a feeling of depth, that the woman is floating in this 'space'.
ReplyDeleteI particulalry liked the second quote - indifference is a lack of feeling adn passion adn therefore it is certainly akin to death.
If we didn't know we were going to die one day, we'd never create such wonderful thoughts, words, art...etc. Death is life too :)

ReplyDeleteI like the way you alter the angle of perception..has she fallen onto the ground?..is she an angel?..is the scar a sign of a tortured life?..a line of ants..reminds me of Salvadore Dali..I don't know why, but I like it.
See all that red there? Yeah. Well, I think she's just angry because she's upside down. Women!
ReplyDeleteYou have a K.G. quote in there. I'd better go snag Blue The Spa Girl and get her butt over here for the party.
ReplyDeleteI am not an art freak but couldn't help noticing that I think there is a face looking at the girl in the painting. I could be wrong. Any takers on this?
