This is my painting of a brown-skinned angel which I started soon after taking Vaishali's ether course, now that i look at it I can see it still needs rendering work and outlines which i never quite finished, and of course I still need more gilding practice! It's a modified version of the angel Gibreel from the MirajNameh of Mirheydar.
Beautiful! This makes me think about a very charismatic Muhammed Ali recalling how he'd ask his mom why angels were always white! https://vimeo.com/139167005
Perfect and so timely! We need angels of all colours and stripes right now. Thanks for sharing! And will you finish this one now?
Also, good example @Nadia Bouhdili of a painting that's been put on the back burner for years and left to marinate (or actually, more like in a deep freeze and then now thawing) and then taken out and looked at in a new light. And then is better for it - @Nadia Madden is going to breathe new life into it and it will gain its own momentum. Who knows what she will do with it... quite exciting!
