For the first time since working on this series, I’ve enjoyed the daily progression of this canvas. The underlying beauty of it lie in the precise measurements I made when sketching the angles of the room. I put the protractor directly onto the picture so I’d leave very little to chance or “artistic ability” when creating the inner space.
The outside of the building was intentionally simple: blue sky, tan sand. As a matter of fact, the only purpose of the outside was to define the inside. This was also accomplished by taping off the section that represented the dive shop building.
I painted just enough things in the shop to suggest where the twins were without getting too bogged down with trying to depict everything that is mentioned in that excerpt from The Adventures of Infinity and Negativa.
When I chose the pictures to represent the twins, I especially looked for body movement. More challenging, but definitely the right call. Actually, I’ve attempted to do that in every painting. The body parts are in better proportion this time.
Now I can paint every day, weather permitting. I expect to have this wall filled with all the chapter storyboards by the end of the year. Hopefully, I will have the WIP completed by then. I’ve been slashing all the fluff lately without adding much. Once I have it streamlined to the essential parts, I’m banking on the fact that the story will be easier to complete. In the meantime, the adventure of bringing the twins to life continues!
Beautifully Perfect Indeed. This painting is now my desktop background.
Now try this….every morning when you look in the mirror say the same thing….
I AM A PERFECT. I AM BEAUTIFUL.
I love the ‘V’ symbolism behind the Twins.
And the ‘tree of life’ in the center representing both male and female aspects of our Nature.
‘V’ represents the Daughter of the Divine Mother Goddess and Virgin…Virgo.
In Hindu culture it represents Sita the furrow, consort of Rama. Sita is Earth Mother to which all female children are Offered at birth so they will be fertile and populate the Earth.
In Egyptian culture it is Venus….daughter of Isis who was a gift wife who carried the Genesis of Isis to a distant land. She became a Mother Goddess in her own right in the land where her descendants ruled.
Venus is and always has been a symbol of the Divine Feminine the gently entices the Divine Masculine (Mars) to turn from His propensity of War and Death to Life and Love thus saving the World from Self-Destruction.
As you Grow your Paintings teach much of who You really are.
Extraordinary Woman.
