World in Blue and Taboo





Just finished these two paintings. On "World in Blue" her hands, her inward stare, the slight lean, the intricate design of her dress and the back lit glare all attracted me. On Taboo, I attempted to capture emotion, expression, personality, character, and technically--folds and depth. I went with a simple background because it does not distract. I want her to pull you in. Her pouty lips and sultry eyes should do it. It took about 16-18 hours to complete. What do you all think? Was it worth the time?
