Painting Sina

'HIGA' reborn

In the pack of canvases that I bought, there was a big 610 x 455
canvas, which I was saving for a landscape. "That could work!", I
muttered out loud. Within ten minutes 'HIGA' became 'HIG'. I had
traced and transferred the 'HIG' outline onto the large canvas, via
cling film. I pencilled in, the missing feet and 'HIGA' was reborn!

It's not fun trying to duplicate a painting. Could I even achieve it.
I have never duplicated before, it's a bit boring. If you went up to
Leonardo Da Vinci and asked him to paint you a Mona Lisa, he
would probably tell you to go forth. I decided to speed paint it.
Within a few days I knew I had a chance of success.
Barefoot Sina was now alive and kicking.

Flicking my eyes to the unvarnished 'HIG' hanging
on my wall and then back to 'HIGA' on my easel was a little
disconcerting. After a week, the clone took shape. Not only
that, she was electric. I was bold with my brush too. Why not,
even if I failed with 'HIGA', I already had 'HIG'. With nothing
to lose, I splashed it on. A packet of broken biscuits later, it
was done. I looked at 'HIGA' for a moment and thought, shall
I now destroy 'HIG', in order to make 'HIGA' unique; no way!

The transfer	'HIGA' reborn!	Sci-fi 'HIGA'

The feet are back!	Flicking my eyes	Electric 'HIGA'

The two paintings 'HIG' and 'HIGA' are very similar, like twins,
almost inseparable. Which painting is better, the three month
'HIG' or the three week 'HIGA'? On that thought, my friends...
I will let you be the judge.

Sina - HIG	Sina - HIGA
