Hello sketchbook community! Hope you're doing good.
I haven't had RCs to stop by and say hi to the sketchbook community yet but now I managed to do it.
I'm currently working on a new painting series inspired by death and rebirth of nature and these are first two pictures that are going to get into the collection. It was a long process of developing the idea especially after long hard days of overtime working in the office, but it was so strong it managed to get out of the part of my mind which is delegated to getting ideas and overflow my whole being up to the point where I can only think of this... And imagery like this started popping out...
On the left side there's an upper part of a piece containing lavender, skull and bones. I kinda wanted to add many small bones to the upper part to act like branches fallen off the trees. And on the right there's a few red morels. Anyone who was searching for those knows what kind of treasure is that. These nutty brainy things are worthy of respect.
The middle of Lavender one also contains a few larger bones signifying that many large beings sometimes end up the same way as smaller ones. And Morels on the second part grow out of same bones that make us up.
And there's a few more glimpses into the pieces. It took me almost a week to finish these two as they were quite a challenge, nevertheless 4 more are going to be made. Also here is the full preview of the lavender/violet one.
And this one is the full preview of the morels. I don't know why but I'm drawn to these magical creatures so much that I'm planning to grow (more like hope) those in backyard in far future. Of course these aren't gonna be nearly as red as these are...
I can't decide which one I like better. The first one is way more complex, yet somehow those morels seem to draw my attention more... I know that these aren't perfect but I'd love to hear what you think and connect with you! Don't be shy to write down in the comments even if it is critique as I (hope again) can handle it.
P.S. I'm uploading these images to imgur so I hope the links work...
