I have been working like a maniac! Isn't it funny how some times you are completely blocked, and all of a sudden the muses attack you? Well, my muses are in inspiration mode so I have been busy.
This is my current mixed media painting, which had started as a close up, didn't convince me so well, so after a few weeks I painted on top and the result has me feeling happier:
This is how it looked like before, as you can see, I pretty much changed everything. I wish I had remember to take a picture in progress of when I started the changes, but I didn't. I basically added texture and collage elements with matte medium and acrylics.
And a song so you feel happy.
Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful creative weekend!
when you are ready go to the rest of the Party

These are both so lovely!!
Second painting much nicer. Different painting really!
Wow, it's so different! I like to think in the new one she is dreaming about that image, caught inside of the painting now. Lovely. Happy PPF!
Thanks Heather and Kat!
Thanks Rosie!
Wow, You really did practically start all over again! I liked how it was originally but the amended version is stunning. There's so much depth and texture to it, really beautiful.
Oh beautiful! There both so pretty!
Well, yeah for the muse! :) Great paintings!
What luck! we must seize the inspiration when it comes .... Saludos
Awesome painting! Bravo to you for 'starting over' ~~Happy PPF ~namaste, Carol ^_^ ( Share the Creative Journey)
Wow - how cool to see where your painting started from... I think Kat's take on it is really interesting :)
I love the layers and her beautiful, thoughtful expression... Wonderful!

I like them both - definitely not a small revision! How wonderful the muse is on your side with this big project. Looking forward to seeing more!
Quite a change! Actually, I like them both!
Wow, you really did make it over. I think it turned out great, so much depth and texture makes it really intriguing.

Both paintings are beautiful, and it's amazing that your finished painting is so different from where it started... great job :)
Thanks for ALL the nice comments! I'm visiting back :oD
Both of your paintings look amazing Ayala!!! wonderful work ...Happy PPF!!!
"attack of the muse" LOL. I just love your painting. The expression on her face is so beautiful. Every time I look at it I give it a different interpretation. Is she moved by a beautiful song? Is she overcome with grief? Is this a moment of peace and gratitude? She has a story to tell!
They both look lovely, but so different.
I like the change....and the decision to keep the 'imagine'...
Beautiful texture and colors...so pleasant to gaze upon :)
i like them both, but each is so different.
The first thing I thought of when I saw your first painting was "be still my heart." That's the title I gave it in my mind. She is deeply moved and so am I. Very nice work!!
they are both beautiful,, what a transformation
I agree, both of these are beautiful, and I love the idea of your second woman dreaming of the first. Also love the "attack of the muse" I've been blocked lately too and am always glad when the muses come back to play- it's so lonely when they're away!
Happy PPF,
Stephanie
Both so lovely!! Happy ppf!

Gorgeous!! Gorgeous!!! Gorgeous !!!! Love it!!! Thanks for the song ;o)
Both are so AWESOME! I LOVE the angel the best! Great work, Ayala! Deb
I liked the first version but I really like the eyes in the second. I find it really difficult to not change an entire painting too, when I feel that it's just a bit off.. My boyfriend tries to convince me it's all part of the learning :)
I like them both, but the second is my fav. Love your paintings Happy PPF!
Really beautiful work, the shading of her face is amazing!

Just wanted to thank you for stopping by and commenting on my sunflowers; glad you liked them. And to thank you for your experience with the water mixable oils; I appreciate it.
Your girls are lovely. Love the sensuality found within each. :)
Wow! You did make quite a change! I think they both look wonderful. Looking forward to seeing more...Yay muse! :)
Fantastic artwork. You did a great job of shading of the girl's face. Well Done!
Truly love the first one with all of the colours and design incorporated but both are very lovely!
