A Muse Visits! Woman with Flowers

Asher Kelman

OPF Owner/Editor-in-Chief
So you my wonder why my wife buys so many fresh flowers to put in handsome vases. Well, besides entertaining, my wife loves to support my artwork and always surpises me with wonderful new vases of flowers for my work.

Is it a condition that I like it before more is forthcoming? If so, I will say I like it.
But I sense an incompleteness in the dynamics.

I look forward to the next installment.

Cheers

Take this beginning as a hors d'oeuvres at a party. It's an incomplete morsel, just a taste!

But I sense an incompleteness in the dynamics.

This might be because there are two strong elements that simply float and are not related. Yes, that's what there is. But there's black space for you to add whatever you wish.

Thanks for your consideration, Tom.

Wind blows from the light...

The light is coherent with the scene and the background where the orange dominates.

The feeling is reinforced by the use of the canvas in a light orange...

I am sure you can do better Asher !

Perhaps it is just me but I do not understand any visual connection between the lady curved to our right and the vase on our left... and why wind on her hair ?

Please Asher, give me a hint will you please ?!...

Antonio,

The two elements are indeed not related except by color palette, so it's disturbing. I have many pictures where they are integrated. I chose this one because it lacked the gillie between the two parts.

There's black space. Create in your mind what's needed to complete the balance and connections.

I left big spaces for you to work in!

Asher
