I usually do concept portraits. I like to create a mood and an atmosphere. I did two portraits in the series of "Catching Fire". Today I post my first "Catching Fire" for colorchallenge Tuesday orange.
Here is my portrait with a poem to accompany it. The Portrait is displayed after the poem. :)
CATCHING FIRE- PORTRAIT AND POETRY ....
Some run after mammon.
Some seek love.
Some burn in sorrow.
For others it is desire.
For few, the flames dance with joy.
And some dance in flames of romance.
Some glow in fires of inner peace.
Yet, restless wars of survival scald many dreams.
I have burnt my fingers in flames of many hues.
My anger burned me and my dreams too.
I burnt to ashes and rose again.
Only to be burnt once again.
The fumes and flames blinded my eyes.
Was it smoke or mist, I could never decide.
Many wanderings, longings and dreams, as time passed by,
Told me, that I really have no choice.
To burn, is Destiny.
There is no other way.
But I have one power.
I can choose my flame and fire.
To burn is Destiny .
We are forever catching fire....
So, choose wisely your heat,
Your Flame and your Fire
:) :D

Wow, that's a very nice painting! Certainly fits in nicely with the colorchallenge tag! How long did it take you to complete it? Followed you!
Thank you... Glad you like it ... Followed you too.
It took me 3 days and a day for finishing touches ( 6 - 7 hours approx) , It is a watercolour. Watercolour goes fast. :) .
Oils take time
Great portrait, resteemed it on the Steemit Gallery of Art. Check it out, you might be rewarded :)
thank you so much. So kind of you. I am new here . I really am a little lost here. Creating content is easier that manoeuvring myself here. So super thanks for your gracious gesture. :)

Beautiful painting, the contrast in colors is energizing. The poem to go with it is perfect. Wonderful job, thanks for sharing.

Someone commented that they were Japanese lanterns. I was riding my bike by and happened to stop.
