I think you, too, must have been some kind of religious in past lives.

I really want that hushed, magnificent reverent feeling for the Chapel. Still a long ways to go! <br />I'm glad you like my tree.... now belongs to someone else, but such is the way of art... I am painting more trees in my new house too!Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-71465206574747891822010-10-12T21:44:54.336-04:002010-10-12T21:44:54.336-04:00Hey Sans!

I wasn't quite sure I should include my studio ones, but the artist portraying herself theme is such a strong one, I had to use it! I am one of those artists who paints my real life, so I need to be in the picture a lot! <br />As for the tree..... yet another one of my tree of life trees.... I was planning to fill it with a flock of local birds but never got that part done! And yes, most of the people who know me would agree that I am a bit elven and definitely a character! :) I am complimented!<br />And you will be happy to know that I have more walls of my Chapel that I plan to paint for real! I was painting those first walls back in July during the hottest part of the year, and even though the "ceiling" of the Chapel was removed so the painting was easier, I was working under a HOT lamp in order to see what I was painting in that small space! I might complain, but I actually LOVE to paint these rooms and I might have to invent more murals to paint somewhere else when I'm done with these!<br />Thank you for your words of appreciation!Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-89599831877226681362010-10-12T07:30:48.410-04:002010-10-12T07:30:48.410-04:00ESTAS Haciendo documentado sin Muy Trabajo.

The Byzantine and Russian traditional art is not too different from much of the Early Medieval art.... the Church was only recently separated back then. But the Eastern art was much richer in detail and materials.... the West was the land of barbarians!<br />I am painting my Chapel in the full rich colors as if it was newly painted.... sometimes I think I should "age" it a bit when I am done.... we shall see!Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2249478764637750851.post-48923198851505667952010-10-11T08:45:45.204-04:002010-10-11T08:45:45.204-04:00Oh WOW!

And the brighter the better.<br />I love your frescoes!! :) I've always had a soft spot for orthodox Byzantine icons, with their gold and pearls, also for the more restrained Russian ones.<br /><br />St Faith is beautiful, as is your studio tree - elven elegance in both, a delight to the spirit.<br /><br />GlendaGlendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12956249453834779477noreply@blogger.com
