omg
this is a millais.i would never have guessed.okay, maybe the red hair...why did he paint all that cheesy crapif he could paint like this?okay, i'm too harsh on him.i love his ophelia and blind girl and isabella and stuff...but i find this to be so much better.it might be just me.to be honest, i don't really like the pillars,but look at the embroidery!and the blue-yellow contrast.and the orange and red.no kidding, my heart really skipped a beatwhen i spotted this.okay i'll stop.
i'm only posting this to let you in on a plan i got.i plan to transform the way i see things.i'd like to tranform it by drawing everyday.just a little, not much.of course it has to be after life, not doodling.ten minutes at the least.(suppose if you can transform your bodyby working out ten minutes a day, than maybeyou can transform your seeingby drawing ten minutes.)
starting (ummm) today (ummm).
okay, let's say i'll make thisa 30 day challenge.(i posted this little ted speech some time agothat i really loved, so now i'll give it a shot.)i'm a bit scared of course, because i'm notvery good at keeping promises,but now that you got my word,maybe i'll be more able to stick to this.whaddaya think?
i'll keep you posted.
you're welcome to play along,if you want to.
hugs,agnes:)
