The nameless March

a pack of threatening shiny beings are circling around you, what do you do?

Let me take a moment to welcome all of you new humans who joined this niche, brain-cluttered corner this past week or so! It’s a rare event to see such movement here!

As our village is getting more populated I coincidentally present to you my most populated piece yet!

I hadn’t count before but we now know this painting depicts 9 beings (1 very partially). My max was 2 until now. Interesting (ish).

Unsurprisingly, because of the amount of bare bodies, this piece took quite a few passes before the final sketch ended onto the final page. These you are seeing are the last 2 of them.

and now we are ready to paint!

For once (very rare) I knew what colours I wanted this piece to be. I actualy knew the colours even before I had the idea for the subject(s).
I wanted pain-inducing red, a deep blue and a porcelain white! This Work in progress babe on top was my favourite. Underneath you can see it completed!

Once I was done I changed my mind about the background shade at least three times, which was deeply annoying since I had to repaint it over and over, being extra careful not to destroy any baby puttini in the process.

Ultimately though this is what I picked!

And here it is in all of its majestic circling.

As usual I started the piece not knowing why I was picking the subject that I picked.

I wouldn’t be able to tell you what this means fully, I have a hint of a possible meaning but I am not going to investigate any further. I’ll hear it when I’m ready to hear it.

I would love to hear your thoughts about what you think this could mean for you! If you made it all the way to the end and feel like taking a moment to look into yourself let me know what this painting say to you!

Throughout the years I noticed that many people tend to feel conscious about voicing their inner feelings about a piece of art because they feel “ignorant” or “silly”.

Though is actually quite easy because looking at a piece you either feel something or you don’t. If you don’t feel anything you move on, if you feel something it means you have something to say about it. There are no wrong answers, really. It doesn’t have to make sense!

Anyway if I get sidetracked into this I will end up writing for too long.

Have a nice week!
I am going back to recover from my 3rd cold of the year and think of what to make before the year ends! 🌹✨

Talk soon,

Ale💋✨
