    Great perspective and the chosen colours are stunning! moody but still delightful! great work! xx

  • ROUBLE RUST replied 12 days ago

    I worked most of the time to “place” the perspective, happy you said that. And the colour tone – I was thinking for grayscale or simply clear white with the red blood but this blue/cyan makes it look exactly how I wanted it from first place! Thank you so much honey :)) I appreciate it and happy you like it.

  • ROUBLE RUST replied 11 days ago

    That’s true – you don’t see it and get shock “oh my what this?” – that’s the great part of it and I’m thrilled doing dark pieces these kind. It means a lot you said so. Thank yououou (no need to tell you that I love Tim Burton… I think it’s obvious)

    That’s just how I view the tacky, silliness of Christmas. Superb painting, Roula. And with my Scrooge – ‘bah humbug’ attitude to the commercialism of the ruined season, this has to go straight into my faves!

  • ROUBLE RUST replied 4 days ago

    I agree. It’s unconsciously the hidden meaning – like you’re having it in the back of your head. Thank you Colin :))
