Armour and Smoke / Original art

in art •  6 years ago 

I started this painting off very soft and smoky slightly abstract and in a similar style to the previous one I posted. Somewhere along the way I started building some structure into the smoke and it became hard and protective. It looked a bit like armour.

Or maybe tentacles, or scales on a fish! Either way I feel there is some kind of epic battle going on, or perhaps a possession of light.

I was too into this one and didn't stop to capture any process pics, silly me but it happens sometimes :D

Thanks wendy!

Wow! It is an incredible work! As the smoke in the metallized piece flows it is very good! and it is true that sometimes you are so inspired that you forget step by step! :)

I love looking at posts with a step by step but while I am working it's so hard to remember >.< thank you!

Fantastic!

Thank you :D

It is a very interesting combination are like tentacles and scales fused with the colors that give a great impact to the Spectator! It's a pretty beautiful piece

I really like the juxtaposition of the soft and hard, thanks!

Saludos @juliakponsford. siempre sorprendiéndome tu trabajo.

Thank you edward :)

Beautiful piece! It makes me think of a tree branch reaching out through dimensions, connecting with the light source, very spacey yet organic and full of movement. Very nice!

Interdimensional tree 0_0 yes!

Hermoso

a drawing with a lot of imagination, it is very original, it looks like a jellyfish but it also has tentacles, it looks mysterious and poisonous, I congratulate you. Thank you for the artexplosion contest and the great support you give to art.
