A Painted Translation

in #art6 years ago


I do have other paintings to get on with, but after completing the drawing that preceded this, I felt it would translate very well into a painting. As always when working from a black and white reference, I have to call upon other examples and my own experience to render it in colour. Stay tuned for the final result.

Well done. Though, I, personally, prefer the graphite drawing.

Stick around for the final painting.

Looking forward to it.

I like this. It has something that reminds me of a religious icon but in my mind it could also be a modern person on the street, protecting himself from the weather with his shirt, while in the midst of some drug induced ecstasy.

I had similar thoughts.
Either way, it's ecstasy of some sort. ;-)

the colour is well painted so far, @leoplaw... i like the tonality very much :) love this one so far <3

@leoplaw oh wow coloured version is absolutely stunning!!! Great light n shadow compositions! Upvoted to support. 😊

Thank you Manisha!

I like the color of your painting. His facial expression is so complete. It looks like he is longing for something or someone :)

Than you for sharing!

Diversions can be useful in so many ways though, and occasionally produce their own awesomeness ;D

I missed the preceding drawing (now remedied), think you're right and it would make a pretty cool painting.

Glad to hear you agree. =)

How is this possible.incredible@pushkarsingh
