Description
This is a strange piece obviously. I did it as a commission at a convention in the hotel bathroom (so I wouldn't wake up my room mates)...he said to do whatever I wanted, so he got this. Those are supposed to be rose petals.Related content

hum could this be viewed how meaning full life could be for some an or maybe an abortion statement?
Many of us will have different views on this art work.. but what makes it great its the fact that it causes these ideas to bundle up in our little minds..
great work.. even if it was done on a bathroom as everyone was sleeping.. hehe did anyone brush their teeth with paint the next morning by mistake? .. hehehe

Well, I hope it is not any kind of sublimal anti abortion statement, as I am a right to choose person...I think it is just something that popped into my feeble mind at that time....

this makes an interesting statement about life, love, progression, change, growth and death. i am loving it! it is nicely filled with symbolism.

That's watercolours right? Amazing. I really like the background, but it's all very good.

It doesn't matter what you intended or didn't intend the piece speaks for itself with its depth and emotion. This is one of my favorites of yours! The man must be very happy to have recieved such a tremendous work of art.
It speaks to me deeply!
Thank you.

wow! do you use liquid resist or are those edges done by hand? this is really cool. i think the shading's a bit off on the belly, but it's a beautiful painting.

Yeah, used some miskit or something, can't remember....and it is an older painting, so I wouldn't be surprised if it is not as good as it could be!

Beautiful! I love the colors! I wonder though, is she chubby or pregnant?

pregnant, which makes it all the weirder.

I'll never understand the facination some people have with pregnant women. I've seen many commission pieces where people have asked the artist to draw the woman pregnant and usualy nude. I've never gotten one, but I always wondered what the facination was.

I love the background, it adds such a great flow to the feel of the picture. Her hair looks great too. Slightly weird concept but I love the way you've executed it.
What did the guy it was for think?

Yes, it might be a weird concept, but that's what makes this picture so original. I really like it. She reminds me of Lilith, I don't know why
