Knifes

Just finished, and it’s still wet. I used to paint bigger paintings. It’s only 11,5 inch square and painting such small piece is a challenge. My first idea was just to paint male nude, nothing more, but while painting I was listening to Nox Arcana music (so creepy and dark, with all those Lovecraft mythos, invocations and singing) and some ideas about faith, understanding of evil were bouncing around my head. Is it always good what we do in the name of faith?

This blurry, side photo I’ve put just for proper color presentation. Cameras just can’t capture all those beautiful colors oil paint has.
