Thinking about the sea (oil on canvas)

in Sketchbook8 months ago

Hello hivers, an happy Thursday to you all!
Another gray raining day here and so I'm spending the most part of the day between brushes and colors to work on some new pieces and to exercise my hands on my sketchbook.
I'm feeling myself a little lazy cause the weather, I think I need to move my legs outside to recharge my energy and to clean my mind, but now it's raining hard and so I can just to drink a cup of coffee. ^_^
In the previous days I worked on a new oil painting on canvas titled "Thinking about the sea" and I just finished it, so I can show you the final result.

A detail of the artwork:

The entire piece:

As you can see, the subject is one of my usual women with blue hair in my own illustrative style. She wear a striped dress and I added a lighthouse and a paper boat on her hair.
It's an oil painting on a canvas sized 30 cm x 40 cm ( 11.8" x 15.7" ) and, like I use to do, I took some pics while I was painted her so you can see the process too:

Now the artwork is drying, but when it will be ready (it needs around 2 weeks to be dried enough) I'll add this new artwork to my Artfinder shop (link at the bottom)!

I hope you like it!
See ya soon and stay safe,
Silvia

It's pretty cold here now, but no rain, or snow. At least the days are getting longer again. I expect the light matters to you with your work.

To be honest, this year the winter is warmer than in the previous years in my area. I remember very very cold winters just few years ago, but it seams the weather is really changing...

I love the painting.

Your art speak volume though simple to the eye. It really depicts the life on sea. The sea can be wild and unpredictable as a woman, the strips she wares shows the waves or undercurrents of the sea, her hair color tells the color of the sea and the paper boat and post gives an ideal view of the vast nature of the sea.

My view though... hehehe. Thanks for sharing such amazing art here.

Such a beautiful words! Tanks so much, @daveyjones8 ^_^

She seems to be waiting for her sailor, with longing eyes!

It's a romanting meaning, maybe she's really waiting her love. ^_^
