Aqua Allure

Pastel on Canton Paper.Size A0

Pastel drawing and yes, its another woman in a landscape, except this one is a Seascape. This is all Pastel...my new medium for the week.

This is NO.1 drawing for Semester 2 at art school. Only another five to go so I’m on my way. I am finding it difficult to try anything new at the moment. Its challenging to say the least. I will probably improve this drawing once its up on the net and I can see it from a distance and I will add some more highlights and lowlights. At the moment I wanted to upload it to my friends as I haven’t uploaded anything in wow, a week or two.

This is STAGE ONE of “Hurricane Woman”.

    This is very cool as it sits. The maelstrom aspects, the calm at her eye, the mischievous intent… I am eagerly anticipating the changes! So glad you’ve captured it at this stage too. It is always very interesting to me to see the progressions taken in a work. Thank you for sharing :)

  • Belinda "Billy... replied

    Thanks Anthony, for some reason Ihave to look at it on screen before I can see where I need to add more…I am thinking of moving some blue around the bottom area, just to give it line to follow, just the blue at the bottom or a few more dark lines will finish it in my eyes….need to sit on it for a week I think. Thanks for commenting….I looked at this all day at the easel and now it looks good to me..funny how I need to photograph something in order to see it? B

    Aquatic deity?
    Subaqueous Succubi…lol…that one actually makes me think of a much darker image lol…
    Tempest Temptress…
    Aqueous Angel….
    Aeruginous chef-d’oeuvre… hehehe :)
    How bout “The Allure of Aqua”.... ?

  • Belinda "Billy... replied

    Ok, mmmmm, I didn’t know you spoke french? Do you teach it? How good are you at French? Looking for someone to teach Jade. The names, well, I lik Allure of Aqua but not. What about Aqua Allure….I like that? What do you think?

  • Belinda "Billy... replied

    Is Alluress a word…Aqua Alluress

  • dimarie

    dimarie

    alluress is not an official word, but thats no reason why you cant use it for a name if you like how it looks/sounds :)...so go for it! :)
    also Aqua Allure sounds nice too….
    Me? French? Oh yea I am la creme de la creme…HAha…nah, not really, I know a few little words here n there….tried to teach myself french when i was about 18…so i remember a few words…but am really bad at pronounciation as I’ve never met anyone who can speak french to tell me what i’m doing right/wrong lol… :):):)
    Good luck with finding someone! hopefully you find a good one! :)

  • Belinda "Billy... replied

    When you come visit you can talk to My hubby and my daughter as they both speak and pronounce it really well. I can see you speaking French, get lessons, you would do well. I like Aqua Allure also. Thanks I am going with that. B

    Makes me think of legends of the deep..very effective, and a marvellous idea as well…

  • Belinda "Billy... replied

    Thanks Janis, I lie in bed at night thinking of an idea, then I start it with no intention of doing a human body or face and this is what happens every time. I am guessing I will just keep doing them until one day I do something else. I love gorgeous woman’s faces, I can’t help but be captivated by the eyes!

    As far as art is concerned, I think it’s always best to go with the flow and do what your subconscious mind wants you to do…your faces in the landscape are superb….

    Congratulations on the feature! I’ve had this one in my Favorites already, and I’m sure I must have commented on it earlier, so I shall not go on about how it’s such a great piece, and how much I love the colors, or what a sparkling genius you are, or etc. lol
