i dont think i've ever spent so long on a painting before.. but i think it was good for me. i used to give up on something after a while and not go into many details... but i decided that was a bad habit so i'm trying to reform the way i paint
i'm not 100% satisfied with this and i do plan to improve it... such as the background.
the bird basically represents a dark "part" of us.. it could be anything from an addiction to a secret- something we should let go of. the ribbon is the hold that it may have on us.. or that we refuse to let go of. i wanted to paint the triumph of relinquishing this... (overcoming it.) this is personal because a big hold on me lately has been self doubt and giving up easily.
photo reference was used lightly for the pose

i'm excited to say everything else was from my head!

I love this image! I wouldn't change a thing of the background.. It gives her dimension, grounding the beautiful image with mystery as to who she is, where she is, and why she is there... Stunning job!
