Enfleurage Nocturnelle
My third entry to Month of Fear 2020 for the subject Supernatural. There's A LOT that comes to mind for that word, but I tried to restrain myself from becoming too complex. My first entry had bees and I wanted to play with the subject more but ended up with only flowers. I was given one of those 3D pens that melt PLA filaments, and one of those was glow-in-the-dark, so I decided to enhance my simple subject of lady with flacon with it. I might have looked first what colour it had because I tracked down fragrant tuberosa flowers as having the perfect greenish-white colour for the traditional glow-in-the-dark plastic, but it turned out mine is transparent! I "drew" the flowers and swirls on a glass plate and glued them to the painting with clear medium. The canvas is an acrylics pouring on wood. I've been enjoying working on those colourful background, even if the uneven surfaces can be tricky. You can see the small cracks of the thick paint layers in some places. The glossy varnish has made some tiny foamy bubbles around the fluorescent filaments and flowers.
