A very personal picture, as the lady wanted it: "My picture, just for me!"

This one is entitled: "Redless Art", is 80 cm wide and 120 cm high.

The materials used are acrylic paints and acrylic-based pigments on canvas and then a little quartz powder

. . . and it came out like this:

orchid

In a relaxed conversation in a relaxed atmosphere, the lady told me what she wanted, after which we identified the main points together in the further conversation and turned to the more personal topics. The lady told me the most important thing: "I want an orchid in the picture, Wolfgang."

"Then I want an elf-like judge, like myself, floating down into the picture."

 

She also wants a dancing couple in the picture, as she likes to dance in her free time). So the macho grabs her, including a red rose in his mouth, with a firm claw. (That much red is allowed ;-))

"I attach importance," she said, "to the renunciation of the color red" . . . so that the work of art does not clash with her usual living style. She then left the way she would carry out her wishes with the rest to me, reassured. (That's why she came to Schmarander!)

As she is now a judge at the regional court, one can certainly speak of a career within her professional life. So I centralized this career in the form of a staircase leading upwards in the middle of the picture... and just as every life does not run stubbornly and in a straight line, the staircase also has a knot. Since the career takes place in the northern part of the republic, I implied a lighthouse with a light shining over everything, and I placed small romantic candles on the railing posts, which represent the desirable moments of happiness in life.

When I visited her at home, I saw a small stone lion in her living room and asked about its reflection in the painting: "Yes, of course, that's a nice idea!" was her answer! Now the stone lion is enthroned high up on the second pillar from the right in the painting. In the original at her home, he is wearing a blue knitted hat with orange splashes of color, and of course the lion's head in the painting is just as warm and colorfully wrapped. (In the original, it is about 1 1/2 thumbs big).

I know that the lady was born in Wolfsburg. Since "home" is and remains something valuable and very special for every person throughout their life, I immortalized the "Wolf's Castle" with a wolf howling at them in a glass ball floating above the first stage of life: Even if "Your Honor" said with a smile that the wolf looked like a mangy mutt, the artist states sanely: This is a wolf!!! (Here it is barely recognizable under the moon, since the "home ball" measures a little over a sailor's finger in diameter). Even if her life path takes her far away from home, the basic feeling remains forever floating in the mental space of every person. Likewise, something of the distant person is always reflected in their home: People look at their loved ones in the distance with pride and wistfulness, so an accent of the personal career ladder is reflected in the ball.

I also know that "Exalted Client" likes to hike on vacation, so I offered to integrate her hiking boots into the picture and suggested the stairs in general. Now it was up to her to happily and excitedly decide where to place her on the stairs.

 

They are her personal hiking boots, as she wears them (to the left of the dancing couple). I know about her vacations in Mexico and Greece, and since relaxing means "coming to yourself and your center," I created a temple for her in the middle of the picture (on the right).

The right part of the temple steps is flooded with water, representing all human moments of happiness and well-being in life. Through her vacation and across the home sphere to the base, her own roots, "Your Honor" imaginarily places herself on the left side of the temple steps, losing herself. She can enjoy the vacation peace in her own orchid garden by the sea. With a babbling waterfall.

Looked at the other way round, with every new second a person enters a new part of life... and that only works if you leave the previous behind (separate yourself) like the seeds of the dandelion, the time is ripe to physically/mentally and emotionally distance yourself from the place of childhood and to break away.

 

The upper left-hand part of the painting ends in the all-encompassing light and in the opening of the sky. I think that the fact that this opening is sometimes presented in unconventional forms for us humans is generally met with approval. A judge, physically rather delicate, would have been struck down by angelic, heavy feather wings. In this way, elf-like dragonfly wings represent the gracefulness of the floating creatures more authentically.

... with a graceful hand, the large, heavy sword of differentiation, it is used resolutely. In a fitting reference to Justitia: blindfolded and with scales. The only red I created was the folds of her robe to match Beck's law books, as well as the silhouette of the lighthouse. The checkered steps, alternating like a lighthouse: red-white-red. A lawyer is also a human and emotional being. So the sharp tip of the sword touches the emotional (water) mirror without hurting a drop. . . .how emotional, I noticed when she pleaded on her knees: "don't poke through the orchid leaf"! Judges are sometimes children, so I painted it again behind them.

 

The beginning runs from the sky above, then in the roots below it has its end. No matter how we twist or turn something, we are all human. Even if she is an objective, weighing authority and used to holding back her feelings, she is still a woman with a lot of emotions.

 

. . and if there are too many of them, it bangs deep down for human reasons, as strong as a squirting stick and finds its outlet on the base level like a burst milk carton, splashing to spraying with anger, as soft as butter.

 

Her floor is covered by an orange carpet with dark blue dots. Shortly after the unveiling, she was surprised to say to herself: "It's a strange feeling to see the carpet in its picture, on which you stand with your own feet in front of the picture!" But the swimming predator: "Much too aggressive" No, she didn't like that. So I fished out the sharky fish, and one..., two..., three... the greedy fellow dived again with his threatening, circling dorsal fin. I should also mention that I designed the green roof of the lighthouse in relief. Because if we humans didn't have the ability to "roof" our lives, we would all still be facing each other with a club. So we constructed a protection under which we humans have been able to civilize ourselves, in other words, evolve, in the necessary peace from the hardships of life. This is the end of this "imagery". I hope you now understand that this work could never have been created in this way if the client had not clearly expressed her wishes. . . . because the artist also asked many questions that were important to the work. So it is more of a challenge for me to transform the wishes and preferences of future owners of Schmarander's art into this. So specifications do not limit me in any way. The opposite is more the case, because you should like it. Now for you. This illustrates the puzzled-together in one "piece":
