Thanks David & Sharon.
Some of my ideas are a bit too weird for life painting. Could you imagine any model holding any of those poses for any length of time.?
With the seated pose, my model was still in the country, so i could get her back near the end for some life sessions. Then she returned to India. She was however lit by natural light in all poses.
With the outdoor ones, the setting is a separate reference, with a standin model for perspective.
For this series, i made a conscious decision not to ask for guidance during my thought process. I didn't want my vision to be influenced as it often is.
And yes Sharon, as i was painting the earth pose, she indeed seemed bathed in moon glow, so i ran with that.
I do wish to allow myself to move outside the traditional box, even though that might not be acceptable to the purists. Having said that, i think i would be more sucessful if i know and understand the rules before i decide to break them.
Sharon, i am delighted that you appreciate my venture.
