wow i love it so far, @kathrina-sofie ! the contour and body language is very intimate and beautiful!

looking forward to see it finished <3

Thank you @veryspider! I hope I'll make good progress on this one, it's not often that I'm using an underpainting like this. So cross your fingers that it'll turn out nicely! :)

I'm in awe! So beautiful, I'm looking forward to the finished work :)

Thank you @lynncoyle1!!
Me too! :D Hope it'll work out well.

An amazing start, I can't wait to see what becomes of the grape leaf, will it be a spray of them? Or a tattoo? or some other wonderful imagining? I can't wait.

Thank you @donnadavisart!! :)
Yes, Otto is right. It's a lime leaf and the legend of Siegfried.

it is a lime leaf (Linde in German) - tilia europaea - and in this context, it refers to the Siegfried legend.

not that well known actually - the lime (Linde) leaf. You won't find it in wikipedia, but I have a old book of German Mythology and it is found in there.

Oh I love lime, especially an allee of them! Thanks for that. I'm looking up the german mythology and lime now! :)

Klasse, das sieht jetzt schon super aus :-)

Is that Siegfried (Sigurd Fafnisbana?) with a Lime leaf on his shoulder blade? I am asking for a friend 😉
(psst, my friends name is Hagen, but don't tell anyone!)

You have quite an interesting circle of friends, don't you? :D
Yes, it's Siegfried in the famous bathing scene. :)
I wanted to paint this picture for ages!! because I think it's a really impressive and important legend, especially this part.
Thank you for upvoting and resteeming!
