WILD FLOWER

WILD FLOWER (2.0)
Some of y’all can probably recognize this painting (or at least some parts of it). That’s because I decided to repaint one of my previous works.

Recently I was in the middle of *probably* the worst art block I’ve ever had. While scrolling through my old projects in procreate I found this one. I made it few months ago while playing with my previous „Wild Flower” inspired painting. I remember how much y’all liked it but I wasn’t satisfied with the execution of this work. There was no technique, I did it in a rush (just because I wanted to celebrate „Indigo” album).

I decided to put the design in circle and THAT WAS IT! I immediately felt the urge to paint! It was a great challenge in terms of details and coloring (I decided to add more shades of Indigo ✨ and a little bit of complementary warm pigments).

„Flower field, that’s where I’m at
Open land, that’s where I’m at
No name, that’s what I have
No shame, I’m on my grave
When your feet don’t touch the ground
When your own heart underestimates you
When your dreams devour you
When you feel you’re not yourself
...
Society’s all for the loudest voice
And here I am, still speaking silence
It’s an aside, a boat in full bloom
To face all the prejudice and misunderstandings
I don’t care much for being tossed into the air
Grounded on my own two feet
Amongst the flowers without names
I can’t go to the stars again, I can’t”
(„Wild Flower” ~RM)

It’s been almost 2 years and this song still brings tears to my eyes. Thank you RM for this masterpiece.
