'Bliss' 12"x24"
Hello All!
I have finally finished this piece that I started over a month ago! It is filled with details, but I haven't had it professionally scanned yet so you may not be able to catch them all with these photos.
I haven't been at my drawing
table for that long! Yikes!
Life has been challenging lately and getting in the way of blogging and my art, writing, etc.
It felt so good to finish this piece!!!
As you know I had been on a Klimt kick before this last break, and below you will see the sketch I started today, inspired by his work 'The Kiss', one of my favorite pieces of his. It will be fun to see where it goes.
We are heading into Fall, my very favorite time of year, and I am enjoying every moment of this wonderful season! Lots of hot tea, baking has begun, (two punkin' pies in the oven as we speak) and just that general crispness in the air! I do hope you are all well and enjoying this beautiful time of year, happy and healthy.
Looking forward to visiting you all more often to see what you have been up to!

This is the most amazing piece EVER. For one it is adorable and I feel very happy viewing it.
A lot is going on here-it also gives me a very "surreal" feeling.
I'm always attracted by the way you use color in skin tones. So delicate and ethereal. Your ornate and intricate details are a trade mark on your work. Always an eye-catcher.
Glad to be back on Blogger!!! This piece is very inspiring. You are absolutely WONDERFUL!
lovely as ever. I like how the tree curves, pretty much how everything just blends together so well.
I hope you have a sweet fall or autumn as I prefer to used instead
Beautiful!
Looking forward to seeing the new Kiss done, the sketch looks great.
We have had to 2 gorgeous Autumn days here, no clouds in the sky.
Cheers.
such a tender and lovely piece Julia! Congratulations on completing this, it must feel grand. And this sketch is delicious! Sweet dreams.

Beautiful work, just amazing! Valerie
Amazing art Julia!!--I am really loving all of the Klimt-inspired pieces I've been seeing. What an inspiring artist he was.
Another beautiful drawing! And you can still see a lot of detail here. I love that it looks like a painting you'd find at the Met!
And I agree completely about fall--I'm so excited!
