yeah..much love for oil pastels. :)
just cant work them in large surfaces and have skipped them for the time being.

 

doing some drawings/studies and it has been awhile.

 

 

first movements on this

 

thats from a month ago

 

due to certain circumstances, i havent painted since the 4th of dec.
been thinking about it, not much though and about smth abstract only.

some times i take a little while to comment

so, you took a month, but-- where is she now?? --->


iwannaseeeeeeeee!

sorry meant the abstract is from a month ago.
the girl - well havent painted as i said since the 4th of dec, so she's incomplete and actually in a worse state from that starting point! lol

oh ha ha ha!

okay, i'll wait...

I haven't posted anything in ages. Perhaps for the better..but here's something. something that looks pretty horrid resized this small, but hey...(then there's a crop of a portion of an eye to get a better idea..)







it's sort of an update to the kind of "vector portraits" I did a while ago...
Supposed to be printed BIG. BIG.

NICE!

that looks awesome! it reminds me a but of chuck close but it's different of course.

love them nic! post more...

and yeah size matters. again cant solve this in my head. its been said that if a piece of art is really good, size shouldnt matter (????). dunno. some stuff look much better in big sizes.

 

 

 

 

threw away the other one; started all over again and in a larger scale.
good luck to me.

i like the new sketch a lot more. break a leg!

ta!

 

UAU!

^ yeah, its what i m worried about, since its first layers and i m gonna miss stuff. i want such color off strokes. for example i like what happened below her chin..but its like only 2nd thin layer.

dont leave ;) no, ok. do what you have to.

i've been thinking for a while now that color is nefeli's strongest suit

i love the light in that portrait

perfect!!

@Plips
about egon schiele; weird -and thank you, its a compliment - you say this, because i never look at him. i mean, i only had a book as a kid, that i loved and thats about it.
btw, recently, i saw schiele in one of my dearest persons' art.

about getting political; you made me think a bit about this. even if its not my goal, or intention, i think that some subtle political sense, or views on life, come out from our art without even noticing it while we make it.
but of course, art with political purpose (?) is other story. dunno what your circumstances are exactly and that job, but perhaps if you are honest about it and show professionalism, some may see it as a good thing? if they arent closed-minded people. wish you all the best.

its some time that i have noticed that most men*, as opposed to women, have a concept, a story behind or in front of their art. i never really do.
* my sample is men/women i know from the drawing class and/or of social media.

and !@#$%!, color is the only thing that comes out naturally to me. for the rest i have to think more.
