Portrait a/b
Acrylic on canvas
60 x 50 cm
The main goal for this artistic attempt was to make the viewer laugh by painting two portraits and try to establish the communication between the two, when paintings are being located one opposite the other. This was the exact way I was painting them. One opposite the other, simultaneously, in order to create the same kind of atmosphere and effects in both of these paintings.
My basic intention was to create to revive the feeling and to create the piece that would make the viewer laugh. For starters, I had taken a couple of photographs of my friend and I, which I used as a template later on. Working with the help of the photography enabled me to capture the micro expressions that add to creating the atmosphere I wish.
Exchanging messages only by the way we look at someone is possible, mostly in cases, with people we know pretty well. Being my oldest friend from the childhood, the second lady in the painting was chosen to be "looking back at me".
The looks I appreciate are the ones which happen in the moments where you Are Not Suppose To Laugh. That is the moment I wanted to show within these two characters, with the intention of reviving it and Maybe transferring it to the viewer :)
