Very Cool!!
Dazzle
I see an accentuated female form with an androgenous face, probably a model on the catwalk. Is she so focused there appears to be no recognition to what has happened to her?
Colin Tobin
This is a really cool piece of work.

Your title reflects your visual metaphors and symbols that makes a bold conceptual statement. It appears that you put a lot of thought and work into this piece and your effort shows in this stunning composition. I would love to know more about your book as I image it must be fascinating. This will make a great front cover.
Anthea Slade replied
Wow Julie, thank you so much for your thoughtful and considered response to Love Bombed. I thoroughly enjoyed reading your words. Yes my love bombed book is a fascinating journey. Have you heard of the term ‘love bombing’ before? I painted the image a few years ago now and have been contemplating the novel since. I began it in 2006 and half finished and am wanting to go back and finish it in 2008. Wrote another book last year called RAW. I am needing to edit and create an art work for that one now :-)

Paul Hamilton ...
love the colours – very dramatic
Anthea Slade replied
Thanks Paul am glad you love the dramatic colours of Love Bombed.
Vasile Stan
A very bold and emotional statement in shades of red with a touch of japanese art.
The intense red over the heart area, the sadness in her face and the self absorbtion look tell of very strong emotions. The well defined strokes with a feeling of bleeding talk about not only hurt, but also give a general sense of angst and perhaps even a bit of anger.
This is a masterful composition which shows an innate talent in bringing emotions and drama to canvas in such a condensed way. Superbly done Anthea, and I just wonder how I have missed to comment on this outstanding (self?) portrait.
LOVE BOMBED
Anthea Slade replied
Wow Vasile thank you so much for your stunning response to Love Bombed. Your reading and response to this work leaves me almost speechless. Your insight and vision of Love Bombed is so well articulated and deeply intune with deeper workings and motivations of this creation…I am simply blown away my friend. Also thank you for the black frame…it looks beautiful and provides a sense of completion to my painting. Thank you…Thank you…

Yuri Lev
I smell a self portrait here. It’s intelligent use of red juxtaopposed on neutral tones imply a highly emotionally charged content.
Anthea Slade replied
Thanks Yurilev I love your reading of Love Bombed and yes it does have highly emotionally charged content. It is more an internal self portrait then an external self portrait.
paul romanowski
A BIT CHAOTIC IN PRESENTATION, BUT THE UNDERLAYING DRAWING IS A STRONG ONE….8.8….....
Anthea Slade replied

ToastedGhost
Absolutely wonderful!
Hey I love chaos!
Anthea Slade replied
Me too. I love chaos because I believe that is where creativity is born. Thanks for engaged comment ToastedGhost. And for favourite.
ToastedGhost
When I had my own large studio it was always the comment “Oh dear how do you work in all this chaos and mess” my reply was “I cannot work in a sterile environment”
Anthea Slade replied
Know exactly what you mean…my studio has chaos and colour and it inspires me to continue creating. Sterile is not for me either.
Paola Jofre
Very impressive work Anthea!!!
Anthea Slade replied
Paola thanks so much. I am so glad you like Love Bombed.
Anthony R. Pla...
Its like you have caught her in the instant of an atomic detonation – she wouldn’t see it coming, therefore she had no time to react – She’ll be dead before she can feel it. Nice :) (sorry if that’s too morbid)
Anthea Slade replied
Wow Anthony…what a unique reading of Love Bombed. Thank you so much for sharing your perspective of her state. And thanks for making Love Bombed a favourite. I am glad you like her :)
Alateia
wow, this is pretty interesting stuff anthea.. great work. i love the random thrashes of brushwork here and there.

MistressZombie
This is absolutely sexy! Have you ventured into the world of fashion design?
Anthea Slade replied
Am so glad you see Love Bombed as sexy MistressZombie. My sister was a fashion designer and maybe she influenced me a little in this one? Fashion Even though I have never ventured into the world of my fashion design I was a great admirer of her perpectual creativity and beautiful creations. Thank you so much for the favourite of Love Bombed.
MistressZombie
It truly appears to be a professional fashion design. Brilliant!
Anthea Slade replied
Oh thank you so much. There is a big story behind this image. I am half way through a novel called Love Bombed and this painting will be on the front cover. I have written 40,000 words so far.
TheArtistMario
Anthea… if you find trouble in producing a name for perhaps a flirtatious Waiter in your book, might I recommend “Mario” ;) Ok, either way I’ll buy it. :))
Anthea Slade replied
Ah ha…thanks for that wonderful tip Mario…I will keep that in mind when I return to this novel that haunts me…I am so glad you will buy it either way…that has made my day. Thank you for the favourite of Love Bombed. P.S. Have also written two other draft novels…RAW and Red Raw…just need to find time to edit :)

Anthea Slade replied
Love Bombed was born out of a challenging experience and she like a goddess arising from the ashes, the courageous soldier surviving the war. One day she will be on the cover of a book I am writing. I would like to write a poem about her…but when I start I get overwhelmed because there is so much I want to say. Thank you for your beautiful comment and favourite my friend. Anthea xx
