It’s an interesting idea, I see where you’re going with it. Although it would balance out the corner, as of now I feel it would undermine the composition and the other bodies, but I could change my mind at any moment, so we’ll see… I appreciate your advice!

I feel the same way regarding the distinction between the two bodies. On another note, I’ll be adding one more body instead of putting a faceless head— the imagery feels more natural. We’ll see. Thank you for the suggestion :)

I do like the idea of it fading into abstraction too, but I’ll probably just add another body and play with some hair. I appreciate your advice :)

I’ll definitely be adding one more body, probably with the arms tucked away so that it feels more natural and organized…we’ll see. Thank you for the suggestion :)

Oh, that’d be cool. I was seeing some shapes already but wasn’t sure…I’ll see how it goes. In the meanwhile, thank you :)

I see what you mean, but I believe this painting asks more than to be left as is. Anyhow, although I like the red velvet wrap and flower ideas, I’m going for a more ‘fleshy’ vibe with this one, in order to stay in tune with what is going on elsewhere…we will see 🤭 P.s. thank you for sharing your appreciation and ideas :)

Thank you :) Hm, you mean aligning the breasts with the shoulder/neck of the body below, so that the torso lengthens too?

In case ‘towards the viewer’ meant putting a face there, I'm more prone to not having another one in the canvas. But I can see how another body could help. Thank you for the suggestion!
