Description
Visit more of my religious art at [link]My last "touchable" (physically, and maybe for some in other ways too
Theme:"The Descend into Hell" in a personal view.
Size: aprox. 200 cm x 160 cm
Tehnique: acrylic on pre-shaped burnt wood, with gold and silver leafs.
The four pieces blended together depict:
-the main is the descent into "Hell"(HELL would be only blindness along with the miss, the regret, the long , the lust till madness for beauty, love, altruism, ... hell would be eternal solitude without sharing minds in all the possible knowledge and potency of creating at will BEAUTY!), where a great Human descend through the locked, never broken before Dark Gates of Sorrow, where Virgil, Plato, Caesar or King Solomon, Orpheus and his precious wife, Adam or Eve... and all who entered became slaves of sorrow... A great Human with such a power and beauty in his mind, trying to bring to all living and dead humankind the most precious gift for our thirst of existence: Life beyond death, Life without end, youth without getting old, ...and BEAUTY, POWER, OMNIPOTENCE. Adam and Eve are depicted at his feet raising from tombs regaining their "eyes light "in pain of such wonder, begging not to be another sadistic dream. The tormented souls from common people to kings and Cesaers, once poor or rich, kind or evil, all they are crying out, demanding or imploring for redemption.
-the two wings depict the two Archangels (i was asked that the Michael arch. should be somehow alike with my customer's little son David of 5 years old regarding face features, who is in love with archangels)
- the third piece attached depict the "fallen/defeated but not dead" angel of death... with his unmerciful scythe always bleeding of hunger for the red of human juice of life... "defeated but not dead" because we are still dying..sadly.

Interesting piece. I'm assuming your main character here is Jesus. It looks as if He's leaving Adam and Eve in hell and ascending though. Is that what you were trying to portray?

Friend, even the title say it all (it's a descent, even the rays of light indicates that, anyway)... but i will be more specific for you :
Jesus is usually depicted pulling form hands adam and eve, or at least one. But... here I accentuated on the aspect of "POWER" invoked form "beyond" (see the raising hand, like he was depicted in resurrection of Lazarus)... He was first a MAN... to descent to HELL and resurrect an entire world, giving redemption and power, i prefered him to spread the aura of a GOD... we all long for power to be more then dying beings... we need to feel an ALLmighty Savior... even if only in our mind. Power is what makes all to bow knees ... if any god would come as Jesus came as a man, would have the same fate as the man Jesus. Thats why people bow to gods... form fear, in the end (tho not of this is about on painting).
Your comment was a bit mischievous, but of course you are free to say your opinion ...

I am simply trying to understand it, as it's difficult for me to believe that Jesus went to hell before ascending to heaven; unless you feel that life on earth is hell.
At any rate, the art is nice.

Am si eu o rugaminte : poti sa-mi spui pe ce esenta de lemn se lucreaza mai bine? cum si cu ce pregatesti lemnul inainte de a picta in ulei? Am avut experienta neplacuta da a mi se fisura (s-au "croit " in cele din urma ) doua blaturi din lemn de tei.Ma poti ajuta cu un sfat?

desigur, cu placere Poti folosi foarte bine lemnul de tei (suportul clasic pentru sculptura si pictura in general, esenta e moale si lemnul dens) doar sa il iei de undeva unde e pregatit si lipit bine... Asa, dar la fel de bine poti folosi si suportul de brad stratificat sau chiar mdf (palul acela mai dens, facut din hartie presata). Daca vei cauta pe situri de material de pictura vei gasi suporturi gata grunduite. Daca vrei tu sa iti prepari lemnul in diferite forme decat cele existente de cumparat, atunci iti grunduiesti lemnul singura in felul traditional (clei de oase, creta de mute, ulei de in) sau mai usor cu un ameste de lavabil si aracet (ex la 500 ml de lavabil pui 500 ml de aracet, deci jumate-jumate). Il dia in mai multe straturi, lasi sa se ususce 12-24 ore si apoi smirgheluiesti suprafata pana iese cat de drapta/fina vrei tu sa fie.
Apoi desenezi proiectul cu un creion sau daca il faci pe pc digital/sau iei un model de inspiratie atunci il copiezi cu indigo pe blatul alb, dupa care zgarii cu simt pe liniile desenate o urma cu un varf de compas sau ceva ascutit, in asa fel incat desenul sa ramana vizibil dupa ce acoperi cu fond etc etc
In ce priveste culorile, nu folosesc ulei, ci acrilic, ceea ce te sfatuiesc si pe tine. Sunt usor solvabile in apa, foarte intense ca si contrast, se ususca foarte repede (10-15 minute) intr-un cuvant minunate pt pictat ce iti doresti

Raspuns nesperat!! Si atat de complet
Am aflat de la tine ceva ce nici de la profesoara mea de la scoala de arte n-am invatat
Si da, ai dreptate, lucrez mai bine cu acrilic pe lemn ...
Multumesc mult pentru sfaturi!
Daca mai am nevoie de ajutor, pot sa te mai intreb?

Ty so much for your beautiful, soothing words And about the time spent on it, with all wood shaped and combined, with all changing (in some places) the colors to blend more beautiful, i think it took about 1 months and half, maybe two
(usually im not painting a single painting at a time, but i can appreciate the time involved in each one)
