Description
I use makeup such as lipstick, eyeshadow and eyeliner on this painting. These items were creatively repurposed for this painting, adding a unique and personal touch to the artwork. But I also use a bit of black acrylic paint for the silhouette.
The painting "Velanoctis" depicts a silhouette of a girl, symbolizing the artist herself, trying to escape from her dark and painful past. She attempts to cover and hide herself from the shadows of her past, using the darkness of the night as a veil to protect and conceal her. The name "Velanoctis" aptly describes this situation, as it combines the elements of "veil," symbolizing her effort to disguise and protect herself, and "night," indicating the time when she feels safest to flee without being seen.
"Velanoctis" reflects a hidden and protected escape under the cover of night, where the darkness offers protection and the chance to start anew. The girl in the painting, representing the artist, is depicted as someone using the darkness as a veil to escape from the shadows of her past, seeking safety and freedom in her flight.
