I am in awe of all your paintings, but as this one slowly loaded on my screen, my jaw dropped! It is stunning! You have a wonderful and fantastical style, and it fits so well the fairy-tale-like subjects in your paintings...

Fabuleux dessin, cette verticalité est impressionnante, on dirait la Belle au Bois dormant dans 
une version à la manière des anciennes estampes japonaises. Absolument grandiose !

Merci beaucoup (: Cette toile fait partie de mes préférées... mais malheureusement j'ai l'impression que l'original est en train de s'altérer, les couleurs passent, surtout le bleu, et ça ressemble plus à un monochrome noir et blanc maintenant. Je pense que c'est dû au fait que je n'ai pas mis assez de fond aquarelle et du coup les couleurs ont du mal à s'accrocher. Enfin j'espère que c'est seulement dû à cela :/

Ha, ça c'est emmerdant ! Mais la toile restera quoiqu'il en soit
toujours empreinte de la magie que tu lui as insufflé, elle perdra
peut-être de sa force, un peu de son intensité mais pas de sa beauté.

It reminds me a bit of the old traditional Chinese paintings, such a nice mood And those textures... what kind of base do you use to prepare the canvas for watercolour?

Sieskja In reply to STelari [2016-03-05 08:01:28 +0000 UTC]

Thanks Sylwia (: Someone else told me about eastern paintings too, it's funny because I begin to be fond of chinese and japanese art and folklore, but I wasn't yet when I finished that painting... Kind of premonition maybe q:
Actually there was an old painting I did 8 or 9 years ago on the canvas, then I covered it with white gesso and "watercolor ground" in order to paint with watercolours on it. This one was in fact my first try and I'm very happy with the result (:

I'm particularly fond of them, too! So seeing you going into that mood was twice as nice to see (:

I'm thinking about a serie of illustrations of japanese fairytales I particularly liked. I just have to find the time for it...

Your art stuns me. Every single piece is just amazing, so detailed, so beautiful...this has to be one of my favorites of yours! I love the bridge and the castle just too add a little human beauty in the midst of all the amazing natural beauty! Just wonderful!

Thanks for your comment (:
I admit I can't say precisely how long it took me... I started it in November, stopped after the first background layer until February... So I don't rememberw. It wasn't that long, even if it was a large surface, because I haven't put so many detailes on it.
