#the unfinished painting || 🎨

[whisperedpromises-silentscreams]

self insert intro post! (and my two main f/os if you squint)

so i have two main self insert characters, both of whom are fleshed out characters of their own and yeah they *might* be just the tiniest bit mary sue-ish but this is my dollhouse and these are my dolls, i can do what i like.

first up we have my ffvii s/i, renaria (i often shorten her name to ren). she's a SOLDIER third class being mentored one-on-one by sephiroth and they eventually develop a relationship beyond mentor and student. most if not all of the stuff i write about them is pre-nibelheim, pre- or mid-crisis core timeframe. still working on stuff for post-nibelheim/advent children timeframe. these two are currently my favourite to play around with in my head.

second off is my destiny s/i, rose! in her first life she was an artist who carved statues and made paintings for the awoken royalty and was engaged to prince uldren, and now in her second life she's an awoken warlock fighting to keep the last city safe. she rekindles her relationship with uldren until forsaken happens and then eventually ends up in a relationship with crow.

each of these characters has their own tags and in posts i will usually refer to them just with their emojis (mainly to avoid clogging the canon characters' main tags with my insane ramblings). the tags are as follows:

renaria - #my blood burns eternal || 🔥

rose - #the unfinished painting || 🎨

sephiroth - #and black feathers fall down || 🪶

uldren/crow - #to live is to tell a story || 🐦

🎨Winslow Homer

Winslow Homer | The Life Line - 1884 - Philadelphia Museum of Art

Detail - Homer's composition puts us into the midst of the action with massive waves rolling past, drenching the semiconscious woman and her anonymous savior on a breeches buoy.

Winslow Homer in 1880 - Born: February 24, 1836 – Died: September 29, 1910

An American landscape painter and illustrator, best known for his marine subjects. He is considered one of the foremost painters in 19th-century America and a preeminent figure in American art.

Largely self-taught, Homer began his career working as a commercial illustrator. He subsequently took up oil painting and produced major studio works characterized by the weight and density he exploited from the medium. He also worked extensively in watercolor, creating a fluid and prolific oeuvre, primarily chronicling his working vacations.

Winslow Homer | The Fog Warning - 1885 - Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Boston, U.S.

The painting depicts a lone fisherman in a dory who has caught several halibut but now sees fog blowing up, threatening to cut him off as he rows back to his ship.

🔽 Bonus Homers 🔽

Winslow Homer | The Herring Net - 1885

Winslow Homer | Boys in a Dory - 1873 - Metropolitan Museum of Art

Winslow Homer | Breezing Up (A Fair Wind) - 1876 - the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.

Winslow Homer commemorative issue of 1962

Winslow Homer | Shooting the Rapids, Saguenay River - 1910 -> This was his final painting & it was unfinished.

Say hello to my Grilled Fish paint palette! 🎨

I thought it would be fun to make a ceramic paint palette using the slab technique, but I also wanted to give it my own spin. Since I have been working on incorporating animals into my designs, I made a fish with the scales being the paint wells. I also wanted to section a part for holding brushes, since I often have the problem with finding a place for them while painting. This piece is a prototype, for me to feel out how to make a palette, gauge thicknesses, drying techniques and glazes.

I chose the Botz Speckle Cream 9886 stoneware glaze since I had used it on other pieces and liked the iron speckle effect. Fired to 1250C. It gives the fish a grilled look and also repels any colour stains. I’ve been using it to mix underglazes for my other pieces and it looks new and unused after I wash it each time. All in all, a successful prototype, and I’m looking forward to making more animal palettes in the future!

I painted a series of seascapes during my summer in Cornwall, and used them for this photo shoot. They are really quite small, and I enjoyed the reduced pressure in painting due to that and my general lack of experience with painting 🌝 If you struggle with 2-D media like me, I highly recommend starting small! I have a graveyard of unfinished canvases stashed in the storage now..

Hi Krem! I don’t know if anyone has asked you this already but I’m very curious, from one artist to another. 🫶🎨 What’s your process for uploading such high quality pictures of your art? Do you have a way you scan each piece? Do you do anything digitally afterwards or do you usually keep it fairly simple when you upload?

(do you mind getting these technical kind of questions? Apologies if you do. Love your watercolor work.)💗

I love receiving technical questions! I literally cannot shut up about this things.

I have a very specific way to scan my paintings which very clearly shows my masochistic tendencies. I paint on fairly large formats (usually 40x60 cm / 15.7x23.6 inches) and I have an old shitty A4 scanner which means I have to scan every 1/4 of the painting individually and then merge all pieces together in Photoshop. Why won't I buy a new bigger scanner and save myself the trouble? Excellent question 🤔

I scan my paintings in 300 DPI so they are really fucking huge on the computer screen. And I do postprocess them in Photoshop in regards to contrast/shadows/lighting/colors, because watercolors is a pale technique and scanning absolutely DESTROYS all of those (or maybe my shitty scanner is guilty of that? What a mystery).

Anyways I made a little graphic to show you the differences.

(The phone camera photo has such a shitty quality and it's unfinished because that's a still from my in-progress video. I don't have any other photos of this painting on my phone, I'm on vacation right now and I didn't take my paintings with me 😂 )

Thank you for asking, I love your art too!

Send me 3-5 emojis and I'll write you a drabble based off of them.

Kotetsu may not look it, but he's actually a very talented painter. Of course, with hero duties and all that on his plate, it's a bit hard for him to do it often... But when he does, it usually turns out pretty damn well.

Not that he ever sells them or anything -- there's a reason no one really knows about it. He sends them all home to his family, who usually displays them for at least some time.

Barnaby finds out by pure chance when Kotetsu doesn't pick up his phone and is missing the fact Barnaby is here to take him to the movies.

He pushes into the house and sees an unfinished painting, as well as Kotetsu, clearly sick out of his mind nearby. He approaches it, looks it over, and checks Kotetsu for a fever (thankfully none, he thinks to himself).

"I didn't know you painted," he says.

"Just a hobby," Kotetsu manages to say. "Shit... is it time for the movie?"

"...I think that can wait, you should rest for now." Barnaby looks back at the painting.

Missing the movies was worth it for this.

A little painting in the tape) 🎨🎨🎨

I'm trying to learn how to paint with gouache 🖌

Here you can see one of my college still lifes. And a few attempts to analyze and copy other artist's still lifes. 🖼 I chose to repeat Kuprin's paintings, because I liked his style and simplicity) The still lifes seem to be unfinished, which makes them look much nicer. ✨✨✨

Now I have a session in college, when I pass all the exams, I will be more active in tumblr!

Writing ask!! 🥳 Why did you start writing fanfic?

💡How many WIPs do you currently have?

🔎 Does anyone beta read or edit your fics?

🎯 Do you have a writing milestone you’re working towards?

🎨 If someone were to make fanart of your work, what fic or scene would you hope to see?

<3 Thanks for the ask, Ace!

🥳 Why did you start writing fanfic?

For most of my life, I've only written original fiction, but I started writing fanfiction because it's so much less stressful for me. I still work on my original fiction, too, but, when I'm stressed out or need a break, I like the fun of just writing a few thousand words of someone else's characters for a while. It takes the pressure off, lets me have fun, and I still get writing practice. It's a win-win.

💡How many WIPs do you currently have?

If I'm counting everything in my "unfinished" folder, somewhere from 10-15? I'm not sure what counts as a WIP and is just ramblings in Google docs, honestly.

🔎 Does anyone beta read or edit your fics?

Usually, no. It's just me writing and then trying to make sure no wayward commas or wonky sentences have snuck through. However, if I'm feeling iffy about a chapter/fic/scene, I do have a few friends I will ask for advice or editing help.

🎯 Do you have a writing milestone you’re working towards?

My big goal is to write and publish a novel. :)

🎨 If someone were to make fanart of your work, what fic or scene would you hope to see?

Oh, that's a tough one! One of my favorite mental images from something I've written is Crosshair flipping Echo off with his nails painted pink. But I would also delight in anything from Sing Me a Song or one of my OCs.

Determined to finish my gwama’s (Grandma) unfinished koi painting 🎨

[hortushorrei]

A new painting has arrived at La Macchina Fissa. Gregorio Bellodi painted his beloved Alessia as she was sleeping. Here we see the black of her dress and hair used masterfully as a colour, just as Manet used it, or Orest Kiprensky in his Portrait of Pushkin (1827). I saw the canvas unfinished about a year ago in their studio in Mirandola (Modena) and immediately fell in love with it, just as it was. The feelings it evoked reminded me of certain Russian realist paintings of the 19th century that I saw in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow: Valentin Serov/Ilya Repin. I begged him not to finish it "too much" and he knew precisely what I meant and exactly when to stop. Then I begged him to sell it to me, and the rest is history, or I should say tonight is part of its history as it arrives in a new home. This is the largest canvas Bellodi has done so far and I couldn't be more proud of him as a painter (or his muse and collaborator). They are both extremely talented artists and great friends. #gregoriobellodi #alessiabaraldi #insettixilografi #oliosutela🎨 #oiloncanvas #newpainting #housemuseum @insetti_xilografi #artistsofitaly #mirandola #friendsfromyearsago #borgovirgilio #quadrinuovi #art #mostreamantova #associazioneculturalereadingretreatsinruralitaly #celebratinganewacquisition #celebrate #blackpaint #blackisacolourtoo #blackisacolor #portraitpainting #figurativeart #ilyarepin #valentinserov (presso La Macchina Fissa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeXBKSNoFSw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
