The Beat and Opera of it all. Painting

My work is diverse in figuration. In that at times I make portrait like pieces. They can be from humans I know or from annonmous images that I then make my own. This is the case with this peice. I am very passionate about music and style from various genres. Music and art has been my faith throughout 2020 in particular, but life in general. I liked the image as I knew it would lend itself to my portrait style. I wanted to create a portrait that captured the beauty and importance of music to our souls. I liked playing with the presumptions of the image. It's gender is unclear. That beat and opera are mentioned in the title. Music of all genres have such importance to our minds. Musical beat is directly relating to our heartbeats. Melody our emotion. The color palette uses a bright joyous colour of yellow against a calm and cityfied lilac tinged grey. I always paint the oil on a brightly coloured acrylic ground. Human faces in my works, (unless commisioned otherwise) always have only one eye slightly open, or eyes obscured completely. This is because eyes distract a viewer from other elements in a piece. I also want obscured eyes or one eye slightly open as a representation of the mysteries of being human.
