Melody of a Bright Day by =memod has such a great perspective. I don't see many pieces of art drawn from this angle, but it works perfectly to build the image of the composer writing his next symphony.

Description

phew, it's done! I've been working on this way too long. which looks like a piece that could (and should!) be done within a few days, took me weeks, because I often had no time to work on it consistently, and because I like painted everything twice....the first basic sketch on paper was done 3 or so times, until I had the perspective guides to my taste and all errors fixed, and it went kinda similar with the painting process.

Thanks to all the people who helped me with crits and suggestions, especially to =liiga, who had to put up with my constant questions and helped me really a lot :aww:

Here are a few close ups =)
This is somewhat a very personal piece, since I love to play the piano a lot, and could only dream of playing at such a loaction :aww:

Enjoy!

I would love to see some details! I believe I see great textures...
The only thing that disappoints me, but it is a matter of taste, is that the circle composition between birds and papers and fugue point with curtains, only gives me a round about endlessly and only until the middle of the picture...
I believe it could benefit of working in a more spiral-way to articulate the upper part and throw you out of the painting... I see the upper-rightward bird or maybe another one by a fourth of the height or maybe a golden section size from the upper limit...
but then that all would ask a continuous spiral up above the first layer of birds so...

maybe a new work trying these composition stuff?
thanks for sharing!
