Woman at work (on a new painting ^_^)
Just a fast post to share with you what I'm doing just now! I'm working on a new painting for my series of artworks inspired by the photos of Diane Arbus. This time I chose to be inspired by one of the most touching pics of Diane and very different from the other I chose in the past. The name of this photo is "Seated man in a bra and stockings", made in N.Y.C. in the 1967 and it catched my eyes for a lot of different reason. Yes, he's a man and he wear a bra, but the main reason I chose this image is because his eyes. The guy in the pic looks a bit enjoyed to be there, but there is also a sort of sadness or melancholy in his eyes. I just started this painting, but I perfectly know that it's not a simple work, because I have to pay attention to represent what I see in the original pics and, at the same time, to leave who will see my painting free to see something different.
Ok, for me it's a bit complex to explain this thought in English, but I hope you understand it ^^
I think it will be a long work, but when I have to work on something more complex than usual I use to listen some music using my earphone and to paint this I chose some songs of the System of a Down that give me a lot of energy! ^_^
See ya tomorrow and steem on!

Wow, this is something big in the making...looking forward to it
Yes, it's something bigger than my usual, I hope to finish it before Christmas ^_^
Keep us updated with the finish product :) I can also see something extraordinary coming up
What's the word for that when the painting mirrors the process?
