This gallery painting took me two days. Violin is a difficult to paint. It is delicately made and it keeps tell me: Keep your big wishy-washy brush away. It is really a balance issue to know how loose I can go, especially with the objects like a violin.
Your brush has shown the violin the respect it deserves.
ReplyDeleteI was looking at my daughter's violin recently, and wondered to myself "how would Qiang paint this?"
ReplyDeleteIs that scary?!
But, I should have known you would allow light to play the instrument, and play it beautifully.
if I'm ever confused about what edges and values should look like, I look at your work. I this one is amazing. Too much to say other than I am humbled as always. :)
ReplyDeleteI really like this one!
ReplyDeleteQiang, I love how direct your brush strokes are. I know how tricky it can be to get the right color, shape, and value in a single stroke. This painting must have been particularly tricky getting it right with the difficult shapes of the violin. Nice work and great painting!
ReplyDeleteThe violin is just stunning. I also love the background showing through to give it that extra glow. Pat
ReplyDeleteYou captured the violin beautifully. What a gorgeous painting you have made--again.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGood job Qiang - I am a violinist AND an artist - it is taking me nearly three years to paint my violin - your two days is wonderful!
