while I was painting this
a fitting song came to mind
"New York is a Woman" by Suzanne Vega
"New York is a woman / she'll make you cry /
and to her you're just another guy" ..

oil on 24 x 36 inch canvas

The woman's face is what one notices first. Then her body, which is assimilated with what seems a cruel and alien world. Her gaze is, honestly, hypnotic. The image is quite organic; especially her lower body and thighs, it seems almost slippery.

Critiques are meant to be suggestions of betterment. But Javelin's image is perfect. It is very haunting. I have knowledge of art I could put forth; bacon, kahlo, haneke. I have examples of art styles, but what's the point.

Her right breast is pointing outwards, like a bullet through the fabric. Her hands on her legs looks like she's sighing, thinking. It's a beautiful image and if anyone wants to ask me about the dA star rating, you're welcome to ask.
What do you think?
