I am running one day behind! Today painting, it is another off prompt my title is “Introspection” I painted a realistic eye to symbolize the given title Introspection which means “to look inside,” and describes the act of thinking about your own actions or inner thoughts. When you examine what you do, say, think or feel and how it affects your life and the lives of others, that’s introspection.

Wish you a wonderful month everyone and to my artists friends keep painting! ❤
Today post feature the release of my new watercolor-graphite painting having the title of “Mystical Multitude”. This is the finished piece of the work in progress that who is following me on Instagram @carolinarussoart already has seen this painting progressing through my latest posts. I am happy how it turned out and If you missed the stages, you can see here the pencil sketch where my inspiration and work begin, actually my starting sketch was the face in the center. This time I wanted to do something different and combine two mediums together and the use of different skills in one painting. I love graphite for the soft tone and shades of grey with the possibility to build up the color with more depth as needed. I felt that would’ve been beautiful combined with the transparency of watercolor using a delicate color palette.
This is the beginning of the watercolor layering stage. I truly enjoyed to create this painting for the variety of expressions in the beautiful faces and for the mixed media technique. I did work for several days on it, there are lots of details and the layering in between watercolors and graphite. The paper I used it is a large size pad it is 9 x 12 inches, approx. 22.9 x 30.5 centimeters.
“For this portrait I gave the title“Mystical Multitude” the meaning behind the painting is inspired by how our emotions are flowing together in our reality, how feelings can transport us in many directions and how much we emotionally change. This portrait shows three different faces of women, but in a mystical and dreamy way it represents one person, the same woman in different moments and emotional state of her life, going through, transformation and changes”.
I love the softness and transparency of the watercolors and I left it as pure watercolor without the ink outline that usually distinguish most of my paintings but using graphite and colored pencils for more definition.

Day 2: NOISE
Ylia love music, she can play every instrument that she will touch, but nothing will beat her loved electric guitar. The best sound and the best noise of the day is when she let go everything playing in a solo while her notes echoing in the air.
Today I loved to create Day 2 “Noise” I wanted to interpret the word noise in a way pleasant giving to my character a great guitar to play. Was great to see Ylia turn alive in a different situation than yesterday it would be amazing in end to see all the 31 drawings.
Actually “Noise music is a category of music that is characterized by the expressive use of noise within a musical context. This type of music tends to challenge the distinction that is made in conventional musical practices between musical and non-musical sound“.
HAPPY OCTOBER everyone!!!
Today is also the first day of this amazing 31 days InkTober Challenge I decided to follow Jake Parker and the Official Prompt List.
Day 1: FAST
I created a character of a superpower girl a futuristic hero, she has a wonderful heart and she can transform and be a girl of our days she is born in the world of fantasy she fly fast driving a disc she would be the muse and main inspiration for my 31 drawings that will create her story!
Today I like to debut here and introduce you my latest watercolor painting the title is “Night And Day” she is another creature from my “Mystic World Collection” I also wrote a poem to tell her beautiful story.
When the sun rise
she emits powerful rays of sunshine,
joy and merriment
sending warm feelings of love through the light
and a breeze
move the petals of a sunflower sending sunshine to the world.
When is twilight
she brings glowing light from the sky when
her other half is below the horizon
her rays of sunshine become refraction and scattering
she emits rays of love into a universal light
illuminating the Earth until dusk
she blows stars in the wind welcoming the night.

Today I like to introduce you my latest watercolor painting and creation she is Azur a creature from a Mystic World, she comes from a place where everything is beautiful and peaceful like a dream. A place of art where creativity and fantasy lead the way to a life of freedom and happiness. Azur beside to be alive in a watercolor painting she could be the main character in an illustrated story or a beautiful character in a computer game or more… The beautiful part is… that she can be whatever I create her to be! 😉
I often enjoy to paint completely out schemes and let my creativity flow like a river while holding my brushes and pens. I enjoy to create whimsical and ethereal faces or figures that seems to come out of a fairytale or dreamy world bringing happiness and joy.
This is Azur’s Mystic Portrait next would be nice to see her in full figure! What do you think? I love your comments ❤
