Welcome to The Jungle
40 x 40 cm
Medium: Acrylics, glitter, flowersequins
June 2011
About: First off, thanks to [link] for letting me use her photo as reference.
Second off, I really worked a lot off reference on this one, and tried to let creativity flow.
I don't really have a lot to say about it right now.
UPDATE: Now I have more to say, lol, I actually always do, but sometimes, nothing comes :)
Anyway, this piece has fast become my second-most popular deviation, when looking at favourites. I am glad about that. Somehow :) Because I feel like this is something that I made, not just one of those where you "copy" a picture. Not that I look down on that a lot. I don't do it very often anymore, but it's always necessary for en artist to do them to get a sense of anatomy and so forth.
I am glad that this piece became popular. Thank you to everyone who faved and commented :) <3
UPDATE (again, lol): Thank you for the DD! And thank you to brilliant pianist, Dave Greening for writing this amazing song to this painting!: [link]
CHECK IT OUT! ^^

Love that song by Guns&Roses. Reminds me of the beging of "Stand by me". Mmm. The songs better then your pic.

Welcome to the jungle we've got fun and games
We got everything you want honey, we know the names
We are the people that can find whatever you may need
If you got the money honey we got your disease

[Chorus]
In the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knnn knne knees, knees
I want to watch you bleed

Welcome to the jungle we take it day by day
If you want it you're gonna bleed but it's the price to pay
And you're a very sexy girl that's very hard to please
You can taste the bright lights but you won't get there for free
In the jungle welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine
Ooh, I want to hear you scream

Welcome to the jungle it gets worse here every day
Ya learn to live like an animal in the jungle where we play
If you hunger for what you see you'll take it eventually
You can have everything you want but you better not take it from me

[Chorus]

And when you're high you never ever want to come down
So down, so down, so down, yeah

You know where you are?
You're down in the jungle baby, you're gonna dieee
In the jungle welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees
In the jungle welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine
In the jungle welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees
In the jungle welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to you
Its gonna bring you down, ha!!

The songs are better than my picture? How can you even compare a song to painting?

The only answer that comes to my mind is:I'm a girl.

Okay, maybe then don't compare something that can't be compared :)

Without art, the crudeness of reality would make the world unbearable.
