It's a secret I keep tucked inside my chest
With this heart of mine that's guilty, not remorseful
There is love that doesn't have a place to rest
But it would have buried you if it had settled on your shoulders
- Never Love An Anchor by The Crane Wives
Inspirations/Refs and short descriptions cut below (and a surprise!)
Female Nude by Emilio Fiaschi and Swooning Woman by Fortunato Gori - Main inspiration for Liz's pose!
Pygmalion and Galatea by Etienne-Maurice Falconet - Inspiration for Liz and Shining's poses.
And lastly, the creative spark that started it all: Dlanon's Shiningale art!

La Mélancholie, Etienne Maurice Falconet, 1774, Louvre, Paris.
(in my heart of hearts, this is a statue of Lesbia/Clodia Metelli with her sparrow)

At
first glance “the
swing”
seems to be a normal painting but look closer and you may start to see its unraveling
secrets.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The
Swing
painting depicts a young woman as the central figure, she is wearing a beautiful light pink-peach dress (or) gown. She enlivens the scene as she swings, in mid-air, her gown. She enlivens the scene as she swings, in mid-air, her gown almost engulfing the red velvet and gilded seat. Her left hand (our right) holds on
to the swing’s rope while her right hand (our left) is open. Her head is slightly tilted to her right and her eyes are gazing at something ahead of her. As she swings forward, she flings her heeled slipper from her left foot, her left leg is held out straight in the air and her right leg is bent. Her slipper is aimed at a large marble statue of what appears to be a Cupid, the Roman god of love. In front and a bit below the woman, in the rose bushes, is a gentleman looking up at her, and what appears to be accidentally
up her dress. He appears to have fallen over, supporting himself on his right elbow while his left arm is outstretched, his hat in hand. The Cupid statue seems to be reminiscent of Etienne-Maurice Falconet’s
Menacing
Cupid
(1757), which was a marble sculpture reportedly made for Etienne-Maurice Falconet’s
Menacing
Cupid
(1757), which was a marble sculpture reportedly made for Madame de Pompadour, who was King Louis XV’s mistress and confidante. Both Cupids have a finger to their lips as if they are keeping a secret. While the roses below the woman echo the color of her dress,
the rest of the composition, the background, and two male figures are darker in color with more neutral, cooler greens and blues denoting the shadows. Also the rope holding upon the swing is breaking, symbolizing the breaking in the woman and the husbands relationship as she swings back and forth between the two men.
What
are y’all’s thoughts on this painting? Please tag me! (it’s for my school project so please be serious😭🫶)

Assignment Name: Redressing the Figure • Tools: Photoshop, tablet • Desc: A redressing of the sculpture “Leda and the Swan" Based on a composition by Etienne-Maurice Falconet as a furry cartoon style. • Feedback: The original sculpture features Leda, a girl in her arm, a kid by her side, and a swan on her lap. It shows the feminine beauty of Leda and Zeus harassing her as a swan. I tried to transformed this into a family consisted of a fox as the care giver and a cat and a rabbit as kiddos. The fur coat and leather dress are inspired by how stereotypical dangerous lady in the nightclub, and the intimacy in the pose between the fox and rabbit came from Zootopia by Disney. The twisting pose of the rabbit and fox was challenging and fun to make. To improve, I will try to strength the linework to present the twist in the muscles and add better texture in clothing • Link to Ref: https://www.pinterest.com/xy2033/00sketch/ #01Figure

La Scultura del giorno: il Cupido Minaccioso di Falconet
La Scultura del giorno che vi propongo oggi è il Cupido Minaccioso che l’artista parigino Maurice Etienne Falconet scolpì nel 1757. Falconet scolpì il dio dell’amore su esplicita richiesta della Marchesa di Pompadour, l’amante preferita di re Luigi XV e figura emblematica del XVIII secolo. Per soddisfare le richieste della marchesa, Falconet diede forma a un fanciullo alato che con…
