Description
Started as an experiment... I had finished a commission and was kind of frustrated ´cause I had put so many hours into it but I wasn´t really happy with the result. Originally I wanted to do some colour sketches... and originally it should be a landscape. But then this picture from a GEO magazine began to fascinate me... In about an hour I had something on the canvas that I started to like. I finished it this morning and the whole thing took me about 4-5 hours (which is short for my pictures).I think there´s still something strange about the face. on the other hand I wanted it to be a bit "sketchy".

Aww, a violin!
I like how you did the face a little "sketchy", it shows your brushwork very well and it's fascinating to see how you work!

Yeah, there´s something about violins I have another canvas board with another violin presketch standing in my room.
I´m happy you like it. Maybe it was time to free my brush a bit... It´s like my technique is different at every picture.

Maybe you really should start playing the violin.
Your technique may differ, but your personal style shines through every picture! I recognize them immediately.

Mmmmh.... with the piano thing and studies and painting... might be tiny bit difficult to pick up another hobby. But I think I´ll at least try playing when I get the chance. Just to know how it feels like...
I have a style^^...cool...

Maybe in the holidays! It would be great if you had the chance to play one day!
Of course you have style! And a great one too!

Unfortunately not. But I know someone who has a violin, maybe we could borrow it.
