Daily Deviation

Given 2008-11-09

Submersion is an apt name for *joeyv7's expressive piece. The mood created is poignant and nearly touchable with her palette of muted tones. (Featured by ^oilsoaked)

Oh, I agree with you. If you are not right from the inside, then nothing will make sense at all.
I think I'm falling in love with your art...

You hack your way through the jungle and there comes a point where the guide says "get out your cameras. The gorillas are around the corner." I grabbed my sketch book. The guide looked at me like I was an idiot.

Yes, inner thoughts are like that... one gets lost in there! Very beautiful !!! My complements. I can see this painting as a cover of a book or decorating a gallery.

She is beautiful. The yellow light brings me back to walking in NY in the dead of night with the street lights giving everything a yellow glow. I miss those nights :manhug:

Golly gosh, excellent job. That lighting effect is just superb; it really heightens the emotional feel of the work.
:iconsayurikemiko:
This is amazing work. The subject really pops out at you and you can just imaginer yourself there with her. Really remarkable.

the lighting in this is just amazing...i agree with siriuslygrimm....i instantly thought of nyc at night... one time when i snuck away from my parents and the hotel and wandered around times square at midnight and just let myself get mesmerized by the lights and sounds...feels like that inside my head sometimes...

:hug: thank you so much! I'm glad that you like - the figure is done in palette knives, background in a thin glaze. I think that helps her pop out.
