Today I thought I would share a painting that for now I have chosen to call ''Lady in white''. I know, it's a pretty bad name, but truth be told, its one of those things I am really bad with. Giving names to my paintings, that is. Actually, if anyone looks at this painting and gets an association or a potential title pops into your minds, please let me know! ;)
I wrote a post about this painting a couple of months back, here's the link;

After that I had another session, but didn't much care for the way it turned out so I've left it since then..
Today I am showing it hoping for some feedback, good or bad, to get me back on the painting horse hopefully arriving at a decent end result not too far from now.
Here it is;
And here it is next to how I left it last time;
So, here are my thoughts so far;
What I think needs clear improvment is the hands, the hair and the pond. I was thinking of putting goldfish in the pond.. Do you think it could be cool? I think so... hehe... When it comes to the hands, I need to work on the drawing and the form making them blend in more and not look so cut out. The hair I think is too bright now and has ended up looking too flat and a bit boring.
A part from that I am still doubting the background.. One thing I am considering is glazing the whole thing down, making it a bit darker to push it backwords a bit more...
Some close ups
So there you have it! :)
What do you think? Any ideas where to take it, what to change or what to let be?
Any thoughts are welcome!
Hope you're all having a wonderful and creative day! :)
