Caelumaid

"Caelumaid," acrylic on canvas, October 2010

Hooray! At last I have finished this painting-- a majestic lady who appears from a swirling cloud of watery goodness. So alas, another painting for my art concentration is finally complete! My favorite part is her face and hair, but I also like the transition from that part to the clouds (or ocean? Nobody knows which it is, but it is something blue?). The weird vertical lines are because I guess mister camera decided to take the grain of the canvas. Those aren't visible in real life, but since I had to resize the image to so small I guess that's what happens!

GAWGEOUS GURRRL. And this is ACRYLIC?! Amazing! It kind of looks like computer work, like tablet or photoshop or something. But real, hand painted art is SO MUCH BETTER.

EPIC WIN AND SKILLZ.

this is absolutely stunning and i'm loving the way her hair flows into the blue and how the dress just blends into the water. and i bet it looks a million times better in person which is ridiculous :)

and um, yes? OUR TRIPODS SHOULD BE BIFFLES FOR LIFE. I have yet to name mine but i'll get on that ASAP.

And I think you know where she is. She knows anyway. She's just not feeling chatty.

I can't imaaaaaaaagine how long this took you to get that perfect effect of smoke and water. Unless it took you a day. Then screw you.

JUST KIDDING. No, truly. I think that you executed the wispy feel very nicely; the colors definitely aid the painting. OH GEEZ why am I critiquing this. I already do that in class. xD I definitely appreciate this more knowing that you did it by hand, painting is a tricky business!

Toast with Charmalade
