Great structure with the knife, I like the way you work with few dominating colours, it makes the red lips and the small blue area "stand out" from the painting. Awesome art

I like this painting. It's an eye catcher. Very nice!

Nice, I like the background a lot. Is it you? And I would like to know more about some background info on this, why it was made, the idea behind it etc. It's always interesting to see what the artist thinks about their own work.

Thank you very much! Nah, it wasn't supposed to be me. And as far as idea wise goes, the background doesn't have too much significance. I just really enjoy using a pallette knife, and I wanted to try making 4 different quadrants in which the direction of the paint changes. And green is a colour I tend to shy away from with paint, so it was good practice. And the idea behind the image itself just kind of came to me while I was listening to Breath of Crows by Brian Eno. Like I was telling you before, she looks more like a zombie than I intended. Haha

Eh, I don't think she looks zombie-ish. That didn't really cross my mind much at all, you've just been looking at it too long lol. I'll have to check out that song and yes I do like the background very much. Good job with your palette knife.

Oh! Ahh yes, I definitely have been. Haha I also added more skin tone, so that made her look much more human. And it's a pretty weird song, I can't decide if I like it or not lol. Though the lyrics of the album are really interesting. Great for getting ideas. And thank you again!

Yeah she's pretty human to me, gave the song a listen. I kinda like it, more like spoken poetry than a song really. Very ambient though, definitely good while doing all this stuff we call art haha.

Definitely! Haha It has a very dream-like feeling to it. I think Pour It Out is my favourite, check that one out too. Very poetic, about society and such. I think you'll like it.

Baha I felt like it was trying to hypnotize me. It is very interesting to listen to, strange songs though... I've never really heard stuff quite like Brian Eno's stuff.

Haha I know hey? You probably won't find anything else like it, he has some very unique music that's for sure.
