Dream Of Flight





A young maiden takes a stance perched in an old dead tree dreaming of one day to take flight like the birds to escape her burdened life. Dreams are all we have she thinks, and for now, I am free. Tried very hard not to go for total realism here. Kept the painting more like traditional style.

  1. Very Nice!

    Love the pose, the skin tone and the long flowing hair.

    The background is nice and bright, which makes the lady and the tree stand out really well.

    Great work!

  2. Whew! I was worried. I made her hair look like wings in a way to give her an angelic appearance but not an angel and not make it noticeable. Just enough to make an impression...I hope.
