Artist's Comments

This was my final art project in school.
Probably the first time I worked seriously with acrylics.
It was quite huge and therefore took me about 2 months to complete. Since I'm quite short, I had to use a ladder to paint the top parts ([link] :P)
Acrylic paint on board
Size: 2,55m x 1,30m
Used references for the hands, I simply studied the anatomical structure of the bones of the hands to be able to bend them how I'd want to.

Obviously there's a lot of symbolism in this. The most important is the thick, green vein that leads from the heart, through the body, out the head, around the arm and into the flower that bleeds. If you have any questions about anything else, please feel free to ask :)

Superbly detailed and designed. I love the anatomy and pose of the figure. Elegant form and fine concept.
