Kehre's Feathers are Pretty
🕑 Added 2022-02-10 10:52:26 +0000 UTCAbstract backgrounds are so much more my jam than I thought. When you go over the top just a little, it's hella fun. And going over the top in earnest? Heck ye. In this picture in particular, I think I discovered the joy of not giving a damn about the leaves. They began as an attempt at quick, simplified foliage -- and now look at them! Some of them are b l u e rectangles. I really didn't give a damn, huh! It was so fun too. In the future, I want to approach Klimt a little more.

I am curious about what I could do with ornamentation, and I guess Kehre's plumage reminded me of the fact that realism aint my hubby, that I can have flings all over. Wait and see, wait and see :> I love Seyorrols' art for a reason!

Nix you are too good to me for commenting on here. But I totally neglected to respond! I thank theee most kindlyyyyy. I think the reason for why it works is that I was using colours inspired from my first attempts at realistic leaves, and then realizing that that would take too long to paint.

Ayy. Blue rectangles! Honestly it came out great. It has a grace in its abstractness that gets away with strange and makes the mind not ask questions on what it sees. Pretty neat
