Live Painting III

Here is my third live painting.

What is interesting about this instance is that the girl painted here didn't appear until the end of the painting. I had painted the girl very quickly at home (it's not very clean) and then applied a new medium I've discovered that allows you to essentially erase paint. So, I painted the entire piece in one color so the figure couldn't be seen underneath. Then I let it dry and packed it up in my car for the show.

At the show, I proceeded to paint the background in several layers. I was even allowed to spray paint a bit. And then half way through, I began to expose the painting underneath. People were pretty amazed at my "performance" and kept questioning me about what I described as a "magic trick". Only one person knew what I had done. :)

Anyway, I think I will reclaim this idea. That is of the girl as a guitar.

it flickers you stare at the space where the fire meets the wick the invisible halo that crowns the candle and it flickers and you realize your skin can't stand to be touched by another it flickers and you remember the nights she held onto you and you thought she would never let go it flickers even if it burns it flickers you stare and swear that space is portal you could reach through and caress HER skin if only the fire was big enough and it wouldn't flicker like a paint chipped window shutter in an Oklahoma twister you heart becomes a tease no longer protecting the pane threatening to shatter and let in the rain soaking the pictures it flickers because there's not enough oxygen because there's too many people in this room and it flickers and you wonder

Art Piece - Reflective Soul

TITLE - Reflective Soul MEDIUM - Glass & Acrylic on Skateboard DIMENSIONS - 7.75" x 30.75" SUGGESTED PRICE - 95.00 DESCRIPTION - This piece is what happens when a full length mirror meets a used skateboard. Another heart of glass mirror piece. It was interesting working with the curves of the skateboard with the flat glass. I'm happy with this one because you still get a solid distorted reflection... <|3
