Oil Pastels on grey primes paper. / ‘Behold’ will be the title for my drawing project I’m working on, i plan to have a series of drawings of nudes such as this one contained in a small space, they will be displayed together with 5 canvases primed grey with poses concentrated on ‘hold’ poses which fold into a box… I think i mentioned the idea before but I’ve been changing it a little. I know it sounds complicated now but hopefully it will turn out well. fingers crossed. / stock image / The ‘Behold’ Paintings: / / The ‘Behold’ Drawings: /

A RedBubble exclusive image. (JA suggests viewing LARGE.) Altering one of the faces from my pencil drawing Sudden Departure, I added her to an oil pastel painting I did recently – as an experiment. The painting is intentionally blurred a bit here. I wanted to try to get the dancers rooted together but still flowing a little on their own. Since the original face was heavily influenced by the Noh mask, I wanted “The Dance” to have some of the unusual elements that Noh dancing does. One movement is to “dance without moving.” The rhythm of movement is extremely important; the rhythm should grow and then fade like a flower blooming and withering. Some movements are so subtle that they cannot be taught; although dancers begin training in childhood, they are said to achieve their best performance in middle age. (I like that.) Detail: /

After my ill-fated original Water Horse artwork was destroyed/lost by the postal service while sending it to its new home, I decided to make another Water Horse of sorts. This one is done in a bit of an Asian style, and is a mixed media creation (oil pastels, colored pencils, art markers, gold paint pen, and liquid copper leaf) on light green Canson pastel paper. The artwork measures 12.5×19 inches. A small study of the basic horse figure was also created and is named Painted Pony According to legends, a Water Horse is a supernatural creature that lures humans to death by drowning. —-—-—— / From Wikipedia The kelpie is a supernatural water horse from Celtic folklore that is believed to haunt the rivers and lochs of Scotland and Ireland. Its hide was supposed to be black (though in some stories it was white), and will appear to be a lost pony, but can be identified by its constantly dripping mane. Its skin is like that of a seal, smooth, but is as cold as death when touched. The horse’s appearance is strong, powerful, and breathtaking. Water horses are also known to transform into handsome men in order to lure women into their traps. It is understood that the nostril of the horse is what creates the illusion of grandeur. The water horse also creates illusions to keep itself hidden, keeping only its eye above water to scout the surface, much like the illusion of a fish’s pupil. It is wise to keep away from them. If a human climbs on the back of a water horse, the horse will often dive into the water and drown its rider. If a human gains control over the horse it can be put to work in fields. Water Horses have the strength of ten land horses and do not like to be enslaved and will try every trick to escape. The water horse then courts its master for several years before it consumes only the left leg and right hand pinky finger of the victim. The water horse is also a common form of the kelpie, said to lure mortals, especially children, into the water to drown and eat them. It performs this act by encouraging children to ride on its back. Once its victims fall into its trap, the kelpie’s skin becomes adhesive and it bears them into the river, dragging them to the bottom of the water and devouring them – except the heart or liver. A common Scottish tale is the story of nine children lured onto a kelpie’s back, while a tenth keeps his distance. The kelpie chases him and tries to catch him, but he escapes. A variation on this is that the tenth child simply strokes the kelpie’s nose, but when his finger becomes stuck to it he takes a knife from his pocket and cuts his own finger off. He saves himself, but is unable to help his friends as they are pulled underwater with the kelpie. Commonly known as spirits of the dead, kelpies are not benevolent creatures. An exception is a Scottish tale in which, towards the end of the mystical period of Scotland, a water horse fails to travel to Tír na nÓg with its fellow mystic folk, and instead rises above water, seeking a wife. However, after attempting to court a clever girl, who consults the wiseman about the situation, he is captured and forced to work in order to be taught compassion. After learning his lesson, he is given the choice of departing to Tír na nÓg, or drinking a magic potion that will make him a real man. The water horse, now full of love decides to drink the potion which erases the memories of his life as a water horse and gives him the chance to live with the clever girl with whom he has fallen in love. —-—-—— View more of my artwork online at http://www.lynnetteshelley.com Also check out Water Horse III
