In love | Acrylic on wooden board. Live painting.
This piece was painted live on a 36" x 48" wooden board, within 4 hours, during a Miami local singer/songwriter music event a few years ago.

@ankapolo Your painting is beautiful!!! The eyes of this portrait are so expressive... they are full of tenderness. I'm already following you. Looking forward to enjoy more of your paintings! I study art and music and practice and love both! If you don't mind, who is the singer songwriter in the venue?
thank you so much @gabrielaesquivel. I wasnt thinking too much about the outcome as i was working on it without much planing, but after it was done, the first thing that was said about it was "in love" and that became the title. There is definitely tenderness, peacefulness... and euphoria happening there. The music was by local Miami rock bands... you live in S. Florida too?
Wow, interesting @ankapolo. Yes, I'm here in South Florida. :) you too?
yep, pompano area :) you should join the chat on Discord, there are quite a few people from Florida there. https://discord.gg/J4QsBN

hey welcome to steemit and thank you for your comment, is that a tattoo you made or is it your tattoo? either way its really nice! you'll do great here!
Thanks for the reply :) yes it is one of the first tattoos I made at our new studio here in the UK ! Again thanks so much, appreciate the feedback! :D
I see there is another blue painting to your left in the photo. You painted that one too? I guess the lady in this painting resembles the real you.
haha, Yes that one is mine to... a fast one i did in one sitting. I do use a lot of blue, with teals and warm contrasts. it does seem that blues dominate a lot of my works...
this is dope....loving the colors you chose here. did u enjoy painting in public...i always have mixed feelings but most the time its super fun...again hella like this piece
yeah i definitely have a love-hate relationship with live painting - like when the painting isn't coming out right, you kinda have to suck it up and keep it going... after all, its a performance...
But on other occasions i get in the zone and i love the whole process... plus i get a painting done in 'one sitting' (standing) :)... so it has it's rewards. It also depends on the venue - how much space you get on the stage, illumination, how easy it is to bring my supplies in and out... all these things. ;P
Super true.... its so nice to get a whole piece done at one time and not have to worry bout takin it home to finish and whatnot... i tend to procrastinate to much when that happens lol
The colors really transmit the feeling of being in love...
Aw thank you, i love your comment. i names the painting after it was done, it felt right. :)
Wow. Such a lively and beautiful painting. The flow and temperature changes really pull me in and the depth you established in the face seals the deal.
It sounds like a pretty cool event. I'm down for pretty much any venue where music and art collide. Creative atmosphere must've been jumpin'.
Oh thank you that mean a lot coming from a painter such as yourself. It was a live painting so no time for making taking the time to shade things properly, but i was pretty happy with it. and as far as the venue goes it was amazing! the painting kept people from leaving before the show was over, and we raffles it out in the end. It was a big success! I stopped doing that though cause not every venue was as good of an experience...
Sometimes it is best when we don't have time to do all the things we want in a painting. I think this painting is perfect as is.
