Just a quick painting for Sajhiri's contest.

A Berceuse is a lullaby.. I'm currently playing Blumenfeld's "Berceuse Op. 23 No.3" for piano, and its very lovely, and stuck in my head while I was painting this. Somehow the classicalness rubbed off on this painting..

This time I try to tone down the colors I used.. my previous paintings sort of burned into my eyes. I wasn't sure about the cropping, but.. I decided to just leave it like this, cos it sorta looks nicer.

Done with watercolors.. about an hour XD.

Hey, I think I'm going to buy a print of this one. I just wondered, what size do you recommend? Would it look better in a smaller, average 8x 12? Or would the 4x6 still do it justice?

I'm on a college student budget, otherwise I'd buy the biggest one XD but yeah, since you made it originally, I thought you might give me a hand?

Hmmmm, for this one, I think 4x6 could be okay.. but ideally I think it will look best as a 8x12. The reason is, this is a full body pic so the detail on her face will be very reduced in 4x6.. but it will not affect the overall pic X3. But 8x12 is always the best size for anything! :hug: Thank you for buying a print though ;_____;

I ended up getting the 4x6 since I'm super cheap, but I like this one a lot, so in the future, I'll probably buy a nice big one too. I love Berceuse's in general. They're all beautiful. And I intend to listen to this one some time :) I don't know much Blumenfeild, tho, so this could be a nice little adventure :D

Wow! That is so beautiful! =) I love the colours and the way they contrast so well, fading into the picture. It certainly is so wonderful to look at! :wow:
