A sketch from a dream I'm working on. #watercolor #art #dream #nofilter

I've captured the sun. -subconscious

I just finished watching a film called,"Seeking a Friend for the End of the World." After watching, I remembered.

So here's a quick drawing of a dream from when I was a much younger girl. When I was in love, or my idea of it at least for that time in my life. It doesn't matter how it ended, it happened and it will always be mine. It was a glimpse. Nowadays I have beyond anything I ever thought I could experience with my current love, my true love & husband. As the days pass. Our life bonds become stronger. But this one dream. Was mine. And it will always be mine. It still makes me happy. Because it was me when I was. 

Two bodies resting in the position I've drawn...him & I. A nuclear bomb goes off in the distance and there is such a quiet it could only be described as what my idea of space sounds like. He says to me as this known world comes to an end: "Look into my eyes...they've captured the Sun so you won't fade."

I had to jot the dream down. Years later and it's still as clear as day. I think I'll bring out some colors for it when I'm not working my ass off on a daily basis here in L.A. It was originally just an unknown room with a white rimmed window I'd never seen. It was a dream. With a very powerful quote from my deepest of deep emotional states of mind. I wish I could remember all of my dreams....oh the drawings that could be!!!

I'll update the final piece when I can. 

- Love & Light, A.W

The Sage Warrior Body Painting

"Sage Warrior" Is the title of this piece. The theme is oriented around inner strength and beauty; Native American lines influenced my approach along with Ancient Geometry symbols. A 5hr process including the feathered mohawk.

Tracy.

She is an absolutely stunning beauty and I love working with her. Despite the fact that she has the attention span of a ferret looking for a belly rub from the sun...

You can view the full photo shoot at my website www.AmberWhiteArt.com under the body painting section.

SO... TRACY. This young woman is going through some major life changes right now and it's interesting to me that there always seems to be a pattern of body paintings that end up reflecting upon the person's state of being at the moment. I suppose it's not all that surprising that when I get to use a fresh bare naked human as my canvas I tend to absorb some of their essence into the piece. PLUS- her hair was amazing! So much of it and so very fine! It was like sculpting fiber...well. I suppose that's exactly what it was but I had no expectations of it doing exactly what I wanted and staying up for 5 hours....

This particular body painting has attracted a lot of powerful comments on social media sites from other women like: "When I look at her I see the strength of myself & how I feel about approaching obstacles." 

Thank you Tracy. You were a lovely canvas and I can't wait for the next one. I believe our time spent together will inspire other women and other artists whatever their genre may be.

Oh, and what is the best way to finish an afternoon of body painting??? 

Why a few shots of tequila and a pool of course... 

Er... kiddie pool.

Well at least it got the paint off.

Love & Light, - A.W
