Art Explosion week 28 entry "Melancholy"
My entry for this contest, with the theme 'Melancholy'. My idea was to capture that feeling of wistful listlessness that can come over you on a long rainy day, waiting in a car.
I painted and retouched it in Photoshop, using some references of rain in the city, rainy streets, cars driving through water, car lights reflecting on wet streets, a portrait, some lightning, a person with an umbrella.

I saw your post on the discord channel for qurator. I am qurite myself. This is a spectacular piece of art. I can imagine how time consuming this can be. I really like your use of light coming from the left in Tea And Roses. I commented here because that post is 14 days old and you are not going to get any more visibility from that one.
Bottomline; excellent work. I am a fan already.
Thank you! I admire the purpose of the Qurator, it seems a time-consuming and thankless task. :)
You have some very nice photography in your blog, and your chart analyses seem very knowledgeable.
What a beautiful montage. Awesome work, sir! 😊
Looks great, it certainly evokes a melancholic mood! I went to a photography talk last night and this encapsulates some of the tips given (I know it's a painting but in terms of capturing an image).
Thank you!
Madrid? I've never been, always wanted to... :)
Yes, Madrid. For sure, come on over!
Great image, that splash of warm color coming from the car's lights in the dark & moody environment does the trick for me!
Thank you!
Great Photoshop artist! Awesome work. Congrats!
you really have passion in art sir @stahlberg it shows in your pieces.
This really great. The reflection is captured so well. I can almost picture myself there. Great job! -@bozz
This is beautifully melancholic @stahlberg!
This is gorgeous, your attention to detail is amazing, rain always puts me in that downer mood, you captured it well!
Thank you!
