Artwork Description:
... had the pleasure and privilege, to 'meet' Andreia on facebook.. a 'new' friend of mine.. went to check on her page.. and found album filled with her lovely images.. noticed her beautiful 'eyes'... expression of 'other inward kind' in one of her photos.. spontaneously thought... hm.. I would bring this beauty of spirit out in a total other form.. contacted her..
described my thought.. suggested to her, to try some black and whites.. and if she would mind, I creatively 'play' with her photograph.. acknowledging the original of photo... to her.. and using it as my 'base'.. She was happy about that.. and gave consent..
Usually, I do not often creatively play' with other peoples anything.. hmm.. except collaborated with my dear friend Prince
.. Don Murphy, the great digital artist..
and photographer.. here on absolutearts .... In mind, with Andreia's image,.. I already 'saw', where I wanted to go...
... to the 'veil'... the deep.. of feel...
the true.. of..
Several hours later... after many choices of back.. forth.. lighter.. darker.. crop..
saturate.. shadow.. light... ahhh... what a creative 'challenge'.. I knew.. I was 'there'... the sensitive.. deep.. inside of heart turned 'view'... and well.. Here 'She' is...
'ANDREIA'...
.. of heart, because of spirit I sensed..
and is also in form naturally of her face..
Wings.. smiling.. the light, which breaks through from soul.. plus.. see it through her eyebrows( the symbolic too for me..
wings of 'free'..).. and form of eyes..
.............................. Do not know.. if she will like this image.. did series.. as much as I do.. But.. guess..
I wait.. and 'see'.... how 'her' reaction is..
This is a deep kind of expression.. touches.. and moves me.. always, when 'Core Of Spirit' leaves 'Voice' within me.....
