After ruining two paintings in one week (the collage under this being the second), I had an epiphany. In Chapter 5, the Princess climbs to the top of the mountain to get a clear view of the landscape. However, she realises that she cannot, on her own, ever get to the bottom of it. I decided to paint that.

Thank you for that compliment, Heather. Even if I say so myself, it’s a satisfactory result after spectacularly ruining the collage under it.

I wish I could see this in person. What size is it?
LikeLiked by 1 person
It is the size of a magazine page, which was glued on cardboard. This accounts for the ribbed texture underneath.

Ahh… Thank you. I have done and want to do larger paintings but they’re not practical unless I have the space to store them before and after. I consider these smaller ones practice. I would like to reproduce or improve on them on wall sized photographs in future. It’s definitely something to look forward to.

That’s really beautiful Sis SB! 🙂 Btw, have you ever posted about painting technique here? I love drawing, but I dunno about painting. 🙂 Thanks

Hello Sis, Thanks for this lovely comment. I admire people who can draw well. It takes a lot of patience and skill. I have only done one post about technique and it was about masking tape. I never thought anyone would be interested in a technique post, but I would be very happy to do one for you.

Hello my sister! I really want to know about painting, sis. In my opinion, drawing and painting have a little differents. The same are the art of them. Sure, you should post n share about it, sister, he..he. I’d be really happy to learn that from you. Writing and art are something that we can combine in this life. Thanks so much for your great response. Can’t wait for that.

The landscape is so beautiful, perhaps she should stay up on the mountain for a while. Then a brave prince might come find her and they could descend together. Or, she might find the surroundings so pleasant on the top of the mountain – that wonderful view, the clean air, the quiet – that she may want to decide to stay.
Either way, I hope you feel better and have a wonderful weekend!

Thank you very much, JC. I am feeling a bit better, thank you for asking. The happy trees aren’t there because the princess is bewildered. The entire (vaguely hinted at) situation is bizarre from her perspective. Have a great weekend. x

It’s a metaphor for something else but the atmosphere reads that it takes two people to sort a situation out and they both have to participate in equal measure.
