Nature Girl
"Nature Girl"
My paintings this year have taken a different turn, is the year of rabbit bringing me more sultry dangerous beauties? I shared them with a close artist friend and she wanted to know where they came from! I have no answer really, I just start sketching and there was a shift, of course I think there will still be more ingénues to paint, but for now I'm enjoying these new intense creatures.
The first is "Nature Girl" She is partially inspired by my favorite song "Nature Boy"
I suppose I should a paint a Nature Boy to go with her?
The next is a piece for Kambriel that I'm painting on wood, oh goodness I'm loving painting on wood! The texture is wonderful and you can be so rough with it. This is a detail of her face (she is yet unnamed) I hope to spend more time on her this weekend.
Is the year of the rabbit bringing changes for you as well?

I love the eyes on these girls!
wow..yes! You've inspired me to be more daring with my artwork this year...I love where you are headed...
Oh do I love your Nature's girls Cat! Dreamy eyes.. Love the colors. Don't you just love painting on wood? I have found that I needed to have brushes just for wood, as it is hard on them..
I can't wait to see more! Just beautiful!!
Enjoy your weekend.

I love the colors in "Nature Girl", wonderful! Who's the artist of the song "Nature Boy"?
The subtly is so suggestive, I love it. Perfect for spring in the year of the rabbit :)
Thank you for the kind comments on the new pieces!
ForestFaery, I believe the original artist was Nat King Cole, I fell in love with it in the opening of Moulin Rouge here it is http://www.last.fm/music/John+Leguizamo/_/Nature+Boy
Thanks, Cat, I'll have to check it out! I love new songs! :) Actually, I love songs in general. ;) I post a featured song of the week on my blog each Monday!
