Backwards – Illustration Friday

I dream in Gold and Green
Backward Glance | Acrylic on Canvas

Illustration Friday’s theme this week is ‘Backwards’ and I really don’t know what to paint or illustrate. Since I haven’t painted dreamy woman for such a long time, I thought I paint this just to add to my collection. I admire Klimt very much, so I added that golden touch.

My other dreamy women:
I Dream of Paradise I Dream in Red

    this is a great series.

    i like the use of gold in the backwards glance. it animates the plant…brings movement. excellent touch.

    Amazing work as always!!!

  11. The Dreaming women characters are nice. The “literal” gold leaf is a nice touch to. I also really enjoy the red head with the maze in her hair, it really gives me that dreamy feeling.

  14. Beautiful, beautiful work Emila!
    I’m so glad you received the CD too! Thank you again!
    I don’t know ifI’ll make the IF blog this week- I have a son who goes in to the hospital for surgery on Friday and it is dominating our priorities right now. The surgery will be a good thing, but he’ll be in the hospital for several days and that will be strange.

  20. froggie says:

    it’s as if your little girls are growing up in dreamy woman…the way you give her such a “i’m thinking of somewhere else” expression, in those eyes, is really quite amazing. :) ) i’m certain klimt looks down and is very happy that you do him such homage. :) )

    happiest of holidays to you and yours, e! :

  21. I love your work! Still looking for one of your ATCs :-) and your baby is just beautiful!

    Happy New Year
