Images Of Art

I think it might have to do with how long you've been a member. My edit button my ^ post is still up, but I remember a few years ago it was all I could do to sleep a few hours and get in to catch my embarrassing drunk posts before the edit button disappeared

I dont see why you would want to delete it though, I like your analysis. I didnt even notice the background, I was struck by how sweet and innocent she looks but that does contrast with the darker hues of the background. I like how he captured so much expression in her face. In the face of the 2nd painting too. And so much movement in all of them, even the static poses. You can feel the moment the girl in the first painting moved her hand to grab her opposite elbow. It's a nervous gesture I make a lot haha

 

You have more natural empathy than I do. I don't know if I could have related the way she was holding her arm to nervous energy that easily(I kinda see broad content, sometimes, when trying to figure out some emotions) I can definitely see it now though.

I'm not sure what point I was trying to get to in my last post, but I am really bad about not getting to the point.

There definitely is lot of movement in the other pictures - storm like...mental storm maybe.
