Descent II | Balladeer of The Dead

[deadsparrow]

Hello folks!

How is everyone keep in this depressing market dip. I'm not really phased much myself. I seem to do better than normal during market turns like these, monetarily speaking, not so much emotionally or psychologically. That will always be trash. But you didn't come to read thoughts on the market. I wouldn't know where to begin with that sort of market fetishism.

Anyhow, I've finished what is, probably, my proudest work so far.

_{The first sketch on photoshop}

It's not often a painting will make you frustrated and exhilarated and the same time. Driven to birth it but resist at every point of the experience. This was the case when I was working on this and at times I felt like just abandoning the whole thing. I know it's an old artist cliche but they are often truer rather than an exception.

The Sketch on the right really gave me a good idea of what it was I wented out of the final piece but during the first time painting it, I realised what or who the subject should be.

Unlike the rest of my other work in the Portraire Series of paintings I change the focus of the painting from the primary protagonist, whom I'll make the subject of my next painting to the skeletal guide. I felt the energy of the painting was to unfocused so I made the choice. At a personal level, the choice was also motived by where I was and still am psychologically and I wanted to bizzarly match that darkly vibe.
