Artist's Comments

I could have danced all night

My entry for moly_x_38

Since I was a kid I have always liked religious iconography. I remember that on the rare occasions I went to church (I don’t have any religion) I used to look the paintings there. Once I asked who where the men on the paintings and an aunt of mine told me “don’t point your finger, is rude”. I still don’t know who most of them are and I still don’t know why is rude to point at painting.

another beautiful creation :) unsurprisingly.
also have at least recently had a fascination with christian religious art (possibly because the art history we've had of late the periods are dominated by it), despite being Jewish. currently especially fascinated by churches.

(ps: thnx for the favorite and watch...already enjoying having watched you :) xx)

Petiza:
En su equilibrio el ángel de tu ícono ha sido dotado de varias alas, resultado de su batir en el rincón del Moleskine. sus ojos se han desorbitado. Ciertamente, no es muy buena costumbre apuntar con el dedo a las criaturas celestiales, sobre todo si están en el interior de ese paraíso que es el templo. de niño fui con mi madre a ver las bellas piernas de los ángeles y sus flamígeras espadas, sus ojos de adolescente y sus magníficas cabelleras y vestimentas. Si no fueran mujeres me habría olvidado de los ángeles. si las mujeres no fueran ángeles me habría olvidado de mí mismo. Efraín Huerta agonizaba mirando en el vacío el batir de las alas de los ángeles que ya venían por él. No es necesario morir para verles a los ojos.
El pajarillo es otra historia... ajajá!

I totally share your liking to religious art. I love going to orthodox churches. It's not only the icons, but I also love their music.
It all makes me wish I was a part of that.
:iconkirjasvig:
And of course your picture is beautiful. :+fav:

Because it's GOD'S painting of course. Gosh. No pointing aloud. (totally kidding- i have no religion either) I've always enjoyed the art in churches as well. I went to Germany and some of their catholic churches are so stunning.

Hahahahahahahaha, well he was a hell of a painter ;P

I imagine that in europe the religious art has to be amazing. I've seen some of it on books. I hope one day I'll go and see it for myself :)
