Hello friends!

I was feeling ecstatic recently when I received a notification that I got now 502+ followers! I know, I know, maybe I am shallow but I thought “How  in the world did it happened?”I don’t post regularly, let alone being less interactive with other Bloggers! ( I am trying my best to squeeze time!) I wish I could do so much more. Even so,I am thankful and I wanted to extend my gratitude to all my friends and people who “notices ” my Blog and my posts. I may not follow every Blog, or reply to every single comment,  but I just want to say that I am grateful for your support and wonderful feed backs!

So here’s a little update on my Art+Work side. Sharing with you another addition to my series “Faces in the Crowd “series. Another mosaic painting with lots of hues of green and playful imagination. Sorry ,but I am still not over with the  “Dunkelbunt”  ( darkcolorful) world of Hundertwasser after visiting the Kuchlbauer Turm and Kunst Haus in Abensberg! So much inspiration from the works of the modern masters of Art!

Have you seen how colorful and intricate the details of the Tower?

First drawing out this naked face, then adding some depth through layers of colors, adding personality and feelings to the painting. I used lots of warm tones , yellow, greens, and browns. I blended it with Paynes grey and lots of detailing using geometric patterns and doodles.Finally it has some “Face value”.

Painting details :  The One with the Greens { 30 x 40 cm / 11.8 x 15.7 inches } .This one I worked with Van Gogh Artist ‘s grade watercolor paper in 200 g/m2 cotton fine grain finish and my new Schmincke watercolor pallete. 

I actually made this painting out of the blue. I haven’t painted for quite sometime and when I picked up my brush, I saw that my pallete had a numerous amount of “green hues” and I don’t want them to completely dried up.

Oh yes, I do save paints! I do more abstract pieces just when the urge to clean up the “mess” comes , and I was happy about the result. Tried it while doing some Night Skies and Galaxy  Effect Artworks, constellations cards.  Also, this painting was inspired by my recent-love affair of growing my little indoor jungle. I have always love plants but just like painting, I never had the chance to actually cultivate something “green”a.k.a plants. I remember the first time that I brought my first cactus and looking back, this is actually one of the plants that I haven’t killed. I love to incorporate pieces that I love in my paintings. More like a reflection of who I am. For those of you who follow me in my Instagram, you can see that I love nature, plants, and find my joy when I see something surreal in the artistic world.

What do you think of her personality?

I think she still looked fine with the fine print and just as clear as the Sicilian Carretto glasses.

Do you also see painting as “Face Value”or you see something fancy ? Tell me what is your opinion about this artwork.

Is this something that you might want to put in your walls given the chance to own it?
