Wow... lovely, and very strange. This sort of thing really appeals to me. This one is very brooding, odd, almost morbid. Reminds me of a book I once read about vampires in which the woman -becoming- a creature begins to find raised scars on her body in strange scripts, naming all the places from around the world where there was death and devastation.

But then, I love anything a bit odd. This painting is weirdly dark like that, but also... the positions of the arms imply support and love, closeness, maybe even sex. Very odd. But very lovely.

Alaka-bee-weeoop! Old school.

As great as usual... I agree with what was just said, even if it calls to me an anatomic board. But I love it!

Ah! It's amazing how You use tis orangea
and blue colour and it goes so great together,
and how you buils forms by that.

another amazing sruff, pal!

Oh, that's cool about the raised scars as text on the body. I love text on the body and ambiguous meaning. Thanks so much for your comment.

Beautiful!
Mysterious,emotive,so detailed in different meanings. I love the concept and the way you used colours. Great work!

this is beautiful

how do you use beeswax in a painting? i'm a painter myself and i'm always looking for new techniques to try out, and using beeswax sounds very interesting...

Life was so simple when we believed dreams could come true.

Use a hotplate to melt the beeswax. I break the wax into pieces first and then drop the wax into empty soup cans. When it melts, you add colour, right out of the tubes of oil paint. The more you add, the more colour you get. You then paint with the wax, using brushes as you normally would. Except, the paint (encaustic) dries immediately upon contact with the painting surface. The brushes you use will be ruined after a while, so you will need to dedicate one set of brushes to this kind of painting. The good thing is that, when you want to stop working, you simply turn off the hotplate, and turn it back on again when you are ready to work again. The brushes will soften up again in the melted wax and you can "save" your colours in solid form. At some art supply shops, you can actually buy the encaustic already coloured, but it is more expensive. If you just want to try the process, get some old candles, even paraffin, and have a go. I get my beeswax from beekeepers nearby. Have fun!

This is excellent work. I love all the textures, and there's so much movement to it. Very inspiring
