Just catching up on all this - Trier I love your eyes closed painting. I would leave it just the way it is. PSA -love your dancers, and I think you finished it well. Not too much!

I decided I really liked trier’s suggestion about dancing in the rain. I also noticed ocean waves at the bottom....so they are dancing in the ocean in the rain. . Too much?

…trier is my obvious muse.....and this method works well for me because it is fun and it masks my utter lack of artistic talent.

A really nice one!

Good job IMHO and very enjoyable.

 

[PSA3475]

Glad you like it . What does IMHO mean?

 

[Trier]

I hate acronyms, but I learned this one in self defense;
IMHO = In My Humble Opinion
I think it came with the texting phenomenom of you young people, and that I was the last one to know.
Wrong again . . .but thanks for saving me from my usual fate.

Guess I was the last to know! But I like being considered one of “you young people”. LOL

Hey PSA . . .I didn't have much time to comment last nite, and want to continue by saying that your inclusion of the wavy water was a terrific idea!

Besides the good it does for the composition, it introduces an element of surealism and ambiguity, hinting at some deeper, heavy duty 'walking on water' spiritual message ....for me anyway.

Looks like you've got this approach nailed.

Carry on.

Now that you mention it.....dancing on troubled waters....my unconscious reaction to these crazy times? I have had frequent covid related dreams....pretty sure Freud would see the connections.

That's interesting. That thought might make another painting as a sort of spin-off. Then maybe another with a Bridge?

 

[PSA3475]

I would be interested to see your take on a spin off in a painted response....

Okay, I'll put that on the list of things to look for in an blind sketch, but I have to attend to my elder care duties (endless) first.
