RE: When Stars Dance Upon Water !
Oh my, I am in love with this painting! It's is magnificent. I don't know how to express how much I truly love the water, the lady, her hair and color, the splash of radiance. Resteemed and upvoted!!!
Wow what a lovely reply. Thank you so much. I have had many offers on the painting as it still hangs in my little gallery. However I have declined every time as as I just cant part with it as yet. I need to live with it a little while longer.
The model is a neighbor of mine who is a ballet dancer. She had a hard time balancing on her toes for a certain amount of time. I got her to throw her head forward to get that effect of her hair.
I wanted to capture her, yes "radiance" as you put it. Her name is Nina. She is beautiful as well as intelligent and very self confident. Thank you for responding, much appreciated!
I am impressed by your work. You have a very distinct style and I bet Nina feels honored to be painted in a way that captures her essence!
Thanks, yeah Nina was happy with the final painting. She has a quality print of it. I plan to paint her again in a bigger painting. But she has modeled for me before and I shall probably do post one of them. Keep a look out. Cheers for your kind words @kristy1
However and wherever you choose to paint Nina will be amazing I am sure. I would like to see the other side of her, like the little bit of darkness she has to possess somewhere. It would be amazing to see her natural radiance light up the night sky like a star that fell to earth bring back the glow of the sun. I believe in things like that. That like the song "don't you know that you are a shooting star" means that when a shooting star falls and we make a wish that you can wish for it to be a star radiant person and someone on earth because like Nina just radiant with a glowing personality if you will. That shooting stars save the world from becoming too filled with dark people. It's one of the things I don't think I am suppose to think or knownor believe but I feel maybe you see that aspect of our world at times too. So it's nice to share.
