The Peacock Empress


Get the TShirt Tears from Heaven

The Peacock Empress is a drawing created a couple of days ago, while at the surgery with my daughter, i had a vision of it which impressed strongly in my mind, and i was able to draw it once I got home.

The idea was the Empress was rising up over the waters.

There’s lots of symbolism in this, but it’s purely for my own benefit and the viewer may decide how the symbolism relates to them…the colour has been done in Photoshop.

She has almost taken on the look of an oriental style “Luna Park” entrance at twilight, might be a nice design for those who celebrate “Chinese New Year” and/or collectors of asian inspired/related art

    Amazing colors and details, I can not imagine the time and concentration it takes to accomplish something like this. Excellent work

  • Karin Taylorcommunity helper replied 10 days ago

    tHx so much Byron… It’s much easier when they come into your mind like a song or a vision as this did, almost effortless. It’s like it wants to paint itself somehow and be born…other times it’s a real labour to produce something ... It’s lovely when one if these come along ::))

    I’m in love with this piece! I started something years ago that’s similar….well, just the head over wateer part…and that’s all that has been done with it. I feel so strongly that I need to revisit this piece now. Oh the colors and the symmetry and the WHIMSY! It makes me smile and makes me want to dance. I do hope I have a little girl some time in the future…..this would be such a wonderful theme to do a child’s bedroom in.
