Description Turquoise,
A mystery so ancient, nobody can remember its origins
Turquoise,
A power so great, it will always heal you
Turquoise,
A call to the soul, so powerful you cannot resist
Turquoise,
Symbolizing the torrent of emotions ravaging your soul
Turquoise,
The memory of her piercing eyes engraved in you forever
Turquoise,
A promise given hand on heart...

******************************************

Turquoise, the seventh stone and now my own favorite due to the joy of creating this one.

For my dear friend Michael Petersen I hope you like her my friend

Reference for the hand, and the form of the snakes, painting them in turquoise was a challenge, the examples i found were in mosaic but i did not want to go that road, it would take away the attention of the girl and her eyes.
Painted in photoshop from scratch about 30 hours
*********************************************

All my stones Jade Moonstone Lapis Lazuli Amber malachite Roze quartz

thank you, i love this stone the most, perhaps because i had to learn to paint the snakes in 3D in the stone, that was so difficult but i enjoyed it

Ahhhh, I love this native Inca-Maya stuff so much It's smth. absolutely enigmatic and mysterious to me and that's the mood your painting has. Great work on her expression and all those elements of BG. And I'n glad to see you're past your artistic block

It is one of my favourite parts as well your technique is suburb! Do you have a tutorial you recommend that explains the technique?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

crayonmaniac In reply to Lumanii [2013-09-30 10:56:52 +0000 UTC]

thanks for your sweet words
i do not often do tutorials and i do not have much time now, but i may store the idea away for future work
i often get bad critiques on my tuts, like i am pretentious (which i am not at all, if anything i am very insecure about my art) and that i should not give advice
but feel free to browse for my tuts i have 4 of them i think : nails, hair, waterdrops, eyes.
the eyes are in my main gallery and very popular, the others are in my scraps
