Woman on a Bench


This using acrylic and paste. Not sure whether I should leave this just as it is or still work on it. Any feedbacks appreciated : )

Cheesecake,
this is my two cents for both yr oil and acrylic:

1. Oil - i think this is one of yr best abstract in oil so far!! very thought provoking and has an appealing texture. Personally one of my favourite!!

2. Acrylic - again, this one is the best among all accross all mediums .. has all the elements needed in my eye. Contrasting ghostly white against the 'old' backdrop' really creates a drama, adding on is the gesture of the figure..

i like it as is it a lot! Personally, i wouldnt touch the human figure anymore. But i may rethink of the background....i would distinguish the wall and the chair.. probably the wall can be tweak..
i dont know... but if u want to leave it as it is..
it just fine!!

Congrat girl!!

But again, if you really so lazy setting up yr tripod....then outsource yr camera work to mr s laaaa... frust laa tgk yr painting photo.. so laa blurry...
just for the record..the best setting for capturing painting is... set the aparture to smallest and open yr shutter to the longest possible...that way you will capture every single detail of yr painting...
all in all....either u put yr camera on a table and use timer or....opt for the obvious, ie. tripod.
please!!

good job!!

Dear Wautz...

Wow...thanks for your comment! I think the best result comes when I do less on the paintings..hehehe..the Ghostly woman was done in a single sitting. If I had spent more time working on it, I could have destroyed it. The acrylic is something that I have continuously work on up till now. Probably I should have stopped, since the review given by you is positive..hehe.

Ok lah boss, next time I take pics I will use my slr and tripod. Malas je.. ; p

Eh, silap...not the acrylic, the oil (untitled) is the one that I'm still working on.
