Seriously...'Well done!' Leonardo was a people watcher, spending hours upon hours observing people around him to gain insight into human expression and emotion. To Leonardo, a portrait painting should not only capture the likeness of the subject as close to reality as may be achieved, but also to capture an emotion or expression that speaks to what is in the soul. For a painting that achieves both it is said to be alive! The Mono Lisa is alive in the painting.
nice story.. but to me, mona lisa is not just about that lady.. its about The Mona and The Lisa. something related with the antichrist n etc... it is a very fine art created by davincci so, take a closer look at the landscape and the whole masterpiece. study it patiently. you will suddenly feel eerie as you see one of them.. well,its just the beginning. ;) Good luck!!

i`m 17 and fairly i can watch ML and i don`t feel anything special. Well, search Alex Grey... his works ''oversoull'', ''wonder'',... they are making something to me...
but ML? yea funky eyes but nothing special... look in oversould better.. that might creep you out too...
well, that's just like what she said with da vinci. if you peeled back the layers of paint from his paintings, everything was either in a different position or a different color. that's just how artists' work--they can never make up their minds so they change and play with their paintings before it's completed. lots and lots of paint wasted! lol BUT, defiantly worth the outcome =)
Val... I really dig this one. :) Your Mona Lisa is aDORable!! I love that it's surrounded by the dark, wide "frame". :) You, as always, rock. (Always love watching you paint in your vids!!)
The Art world is full of Hype.What makes Leonardo sell more than my next door neighbour. Not because he is a better painter. Because there is money to be made from lots of hype....I don't like or crave something because someone told me to......open your eyes !!!! Nice Painting Val but you don't need to explain every layer of paint because thats Hype!
If there was a competition between you and the Mona Lisa for whose eyes are more interesting, your's would win, hands down. They are beautiful and whimsical all at the same time.
I love your rendition of the Mona Lisa :o) Or maybe she should be called a more anime-style Myona Lisai. I really like the HD, it shows more of the texture of your work.
Hi Val, I saw your Tweet about your e-mail. Just this morning, someone else told me the same thing happened to him! Maybe there's a virus going around. Ugh. Are (were) your e-mails stored on your computer or remotely?
I saw the Mona Lisa once. It was smaller than I expected. Sure, Leonardo was a genius, but I think I may like yours better. I once wrote a "Moonlighting" script just for fun which involved the Mona Lisa. I called it (get ready to groan) "Take the Mona and Run." :)
When I was a little girl the mona lisa looked like an old woman to me. Now that I'm older I see her as being very young....lol. My art history teacher told me she saw the mona lisa painting in Paris. She said there were so many people crowded around it that it took her quite a while to get an 'up close look'. I LOVE you're mona lisa rendition Val.
You're right. The thing about the Mona Lisa is the fact that no matter what angle you look at her, she's always looking at you. But I have to admit, your version is even better. Actually, it's a cute rendition. :)
i love the frame. i don't understand how you can make it look so spontaneous yet follow a style. just like you lettering for the gummy bear paintings.
Val I love this painting! She is cute and I love the blue frame, since blue is my favorite color. I wish I could buy this painting, I would definitely love to have it hanging in my room. You are amazing Val! :)
Yes, i's all in the eyes and that secretive smile... Like she is lauhing at us and saying, "I know something that you don't know!" There are so many crazy storires about The Mona Lisa, one is that it is really Leonardo himself and I think they found the woman who the portrait was of.
I've seen the mona lisa a couple of times in Paris. It is such a tiny painting in real life ^^
But it's kinda cool how her eyes follow you when you walk around in the room. The hardest part is walking around...So many people...Such a small painting :)
Love the painting Val. I like your version of Mona Lisa. It looks like you made her in more of an anime chararcter fashion mixed with doll like features which is very cool. I like the blending of blue that you used to frame the painting too. 5 stars!!! :)
Ahaha did you copy that from that show Beyond Belief claiming paintings had eyes that followed you cause they could be possessed by spirits, or is this an artist trait, where they become possessed by demonic spirits like musical artists do :]
I like the look of this a lot. The border is great. And I like the almost anime look that you gave her with soft face and the large eyes. Great job as always :)
Leonardo always took things apart to see how they worked. He was a very interesting man. He drew sketches for many modern inventions that weren't invented at the time, i.e. the hang-glider and the helicopter. He very probably a sort of genius.
Hers are the videos I can watch on a regular basis and not feel like its just a view grab or just to keep attention on her channel....she offers something unique so its def. worth watching! Great job yet again! Peace and blessings to you and all! :-)
