A practice painting, took me about 2 hours. Is based on a reference photo. You can watch the video and see how I go about this process. Basically I start by painting with a reference at the side and then I take the image in my own direction!
It's like I can feel the cool, cold air, and feel the warmth of the flames in contrast. And this deep feeling of . . . profoundness - melancholy, or a sweet sadness (though not in any negative way) and with it a feeling of wonder and awe at the awesome, majestic sight before me. My soul, expanding, feeling it all at once - depthless eternity. Everything is, and I am. It's all like a dream, and yet so real, so vivid.
