My submission for Illustration Friday's "rejection" is from a dimensional painting called "Chastity". This was # 3 in a 5-part series for my show "Five Easy Pieces". The paintings were Vanity, Charity, Chastity, Sinkronicity and Stability. Each artwork was based on a piece of furniture or household item. Vanity is a vanity, Chastity, is a chaise lounge, etc. This is a poster and postcard/invite for the show. She had to reject a lot of men to stay chaste.

powerful invite! i like the colors and the shapes of the structured posts in the background together with the painting of some sort of temples in the middle of the sea and a lot more......
And did it work? :) Nice one, Val.
Now that's a clever concept I wish I thought up :D Great invite!
Of course I just love this image. Check out that moon peeking through the stylish windows? However, I wonder how a beautiful half-naked woman could remain chaste. She must indeed have strong rejection powers!
she must be asexual. or how could it work otherwise?!
val, i just love the blues in this piece. the colors are so so peaceful. this might be one of my very favorites. i'd love to see the other four...
OH! I was wondering like CES...Hhehe! Wonderful illo, Valerie. That women is not rejected.... She's rejecting... :)
I love how you use bright saturated colors and are always able to set the right mood. There is so much depth to this.
This is powerful! Great colors and message.
I love the colors, and the moon peeking through, too!Great work, Val!
Gorgeous as always, I really like the original concept.
Wonderful piece Val. I love looking through the windows. Could that be a hopeful suitor in the boat? And I love the illuminated building in the distance. Very nice!
there is something escheresque about this one...i love the moon coming through/around the windows/columns.
and the blues you've chosen...excellent.
Great painting, Valerie!
You amaze me with your way of thinking.

I like looking out the windows into the background, kinda' mysterious looking. :)
This is fantastic work!
I really like squareness of the figure contrasting with the flowing windows behind it. Beautiful!
Wow! This is a very different take on the subject. I love it, Val :)
this and the whole idea of your series are so clever. so pretty!
