Description An evil flower that sprouted because it was loved...
Well I guess everyone of us has something like that inside them.
Art Nouveau! My first (and probably the last) Mucha-styled painting. I don't feel good with this style, doesn't suit me. And that frame almost killed my hands xD
It was originally something I wanted to try before entering 'Art Nouveau' Contest by *mizzd-stock but I wasn't fast enough with it and I missed the deadline (I'd need another picture for the contest anyway, with het stock used in it).

More 'Art Nouveau' works can be found in this journal -- [link] by *SidelongGlance .


size: 30x40 cm
medium: W&N watercolours, W&N pout brown ink, fabriano paper
trivia: I used two photos as reference, one by me - [link] and one by my roommate (a similar one is posted here - [link] ). And that's me on that photo, so this painting is actually something like a self-portrait ^^

Well it's certainly got a real ring of truth to it, we've all got a poison flower inside of us. I love how you've decided to lay this out, it makes it seem as if the flower has somehow taken over and killed the girl and is standing over her triumphantly. The frame looks great, it becomes a part of the piece rather than being a frame, which is always nice.

anachsunamon In reply to leaf-lover [2007-04-13 14:08:44 +0000 UTC]

This sentence, probably a part of some lyrics, was given to me with the words "think this over and paint it". Oh how easy this was... (to think of an idea, not using Mucha style cause that was the hard part). Think about meeting someone, falling in love eventually, getting closer and closer, and when your lives are like "together forever and ever" and it'd be really hard to break you apart, you don't have to be that lovable and charming, your true nature is taking over. And the evil flower inside you is sprouting, eating all the love that you and the other person gave. And then you hear the words "you are not the person I fell in love with, I don't know you anymore". Something like that. A very nasty thing. I guess that there is a hidden reason behind giving me this theme. Painting this made me realize many bad things about myself. Maybe it'll halp me avoid them in the future

Fava juz dalam, teraz krociutko o samej pracy. Kolorystyka interesujaca. Stylizowanie na Muche udane i mysle, ze warto sie jeszcze z tym zmierzyc w przyszlosci, bo udalo Ci sie osiagnac interesujacy efekt. Poza tym co tu ukrywac, sliczne ujecie.

anachsunamon In reply to SpinelS [2007-04-13 13:54:10 +0000 UTC]

aaaaa tak duzo przychylnych opinii i juz sama nie wiem, co robic Tesknie za swoim naciapanym stylem bez ladu i skladu. Mucha jest dla mnie zbyt hmm... zbyt dokladny, zbyt drobiazgowy i przemyslany. Nad kazda kreska i kazdym kolorem trzeba sie dlugo zastanawiac. Troszke to do mnie nie pasuje, takie ze mnie roztrzepane stworzenie. Zywie sie chaosem. To taka moja wolnosc
Ale dziekuje za opinie. Rozwaze na pewno

Spokojnie, moze jeszcze kiedys do tego wroce. Nie wiem sama, pierwszy raz sprobowalam. Zdaje sobie sprawe, ze sporo ludzi wypiewa ten styl pod niebiosa, ale mnie jakos nie zachwycil. Moze nie doroslam do tego jeszcze We'll see.. Dziekuje pieknie :*
