Surrealism Painting//The Concept of Time

[@nightmary]

I got so engrossing in your video that when my cat came in and meowed, I let out a bit of a shriek. It's a good thing I didn't commission this because I'd just sit in front of it and get lost. Absolutely amazing.

[@sueflanagan5521]

Lydia, I am amazed by your imagination, creativity, and expertise!

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you Sue!❤

[@lyndsfairne]

Gorgeous! Love the top of the clock!!!

[@paintingswithkay6151]

Seriously I am obsessed with your videos, energy, vibe and awesome paintings. Please make more its all I watch learning how to collage with mixed media hoping to elevate my art. Music is on point too. ❤

[@jflo7674]

Sooo beautiful Lydia. You're incredibly talented. Love, love!!! ❤

[@gittejensen813]

[@lydiabroderick867]

I'm so glad! Thank you❤

I thought of The Raven too. I was completely enthralled watching this. Superb. Loved the choice of music too. 🤩🤩

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you Karen!!!❤

[@dot_t]

Absolutely gorgeous!!! Thanks for sharing! ❤️✨

[@carolehlinger932]

That is the most mindblowing art. You are so awesome and talented. Thanks for a fantastic time well spent with your and your talent!!😍

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you Carol! I had to put a corvid in! It wouldn't be right without one😉❤

[@shaylagoogle3097]

Love this picture. Enjoyed watching. Thinking of trying surrealism. Great video!!!

[@francoforleo4971]

This is the best I’ve seen of yours…. So far! Magnificent! 🙏🎨🙏

[@lydiabroderick867]

Wow, thank you Franco!!!😁🙏❤

[@lucytowbin4713]

I agree! It was mesmerizing to watch! Lydia, what determines when you switch from acrylic to oil?

[@lydiabroderick867]

@@lucytowbin4713 usually when I have all of the colors I want blocked in. It makes the softening and refining with oils way easier. That way I don't have to cover every inch of the painting with oil paint. 😊

[@ameliaclark2947]

Beautiful piece. Beautiful work. Love

[@bess1955]

I was working on a painting and saw this pop up so I stopped to come and watch. Been checking each week since you mentioned it in a previous video. Love it! Really cool.

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you Bess!!! I'm glad you like it!❤

[@davidj180]

I never really had a favorite contemporary artist until I discovered your videos. This one is particularly spectacular.

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you so much David!!!❤

[@tracytruhlarik6525]

Hello from Canada Lydia fantastic as usual. Your client will be thrilled I'm sure Thank you for sharing your amazing talent.

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you Tracy!❤

[@virginiekennedy2295]

Dear Lydia, Your talent and patience are always beautiful to observe, thank you for it🙏 The challenge for me is to paint freehand, more difficult than if the canvas is flat on a table. Especially for the details. Wish you a beautiful day and send you lots of hugs🥰

[@pdxwildchildroberts5586]

Wow...*gulp*...this was soooo emotionally stirring...I sat quiet..mesmerised at the end..for minutes..and seriously teared up..thank you for sharing this unexpected "multi-dimensional, time piece"💙..it definitely deserves to be displayed in a space with no other time machines💯....or mirrors

[@lydiabroderick867]

Many thanks🙏❤😊

[@autumnsimril535]

This is brilliant. I wonderful lovechild of Salvador Dali and Tim Burton.

[@lydiabroderick867]

Oh! I love that!!! It totally encapsulates the vibe of this painting!❤

[@RoseMCreations]

Unbelievable! It’s amazing Lydia. Love it. ❤🌹

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you so much Rose!🌹❤

[@michellemyers8439]

This is the most remarkable piece I have ever seen you do. Everytime I think I can't be amazed...you just go ahead and amaze me. I actually found myself crying as I watched your attention to fine details, bold and subtle shading, color choices and blending...on and on as I watched it not only speak to time as depicted...but how time has helped you refine your skills...to the level that all of your creative geniys can fully be expressed on canvas. I truly hope your gift is being recognized all over the world. THE END of my book for today.

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you Michelle!!! I'm so glad you like it because I love painting stuff like this. I do tons of these small studies that are kind of surreal or fantastical, but I don't know... I figure no one is interested in that type of thing. It's definitely a lot more work so I can't pump one out every week. But maybe I'll try doing some more like this and see how it goes.

[@janinewardenoceanjaysartis4937]

Lydia, this is truly amazing, each video leaves me in awe. However, this one, for me, touched my soul. You have a true gift and thank you for sharing your amazing work with us. :)

[@lydiabroderick867]

Janine, your comment is so nice to read. I thank you for your kind words. It means so much.❤

[@Postbedrock]

Best video yet (and that's saying a lot). Insanely talented. I look forward to these every week!

[@jerricantone8639]

Amazing!

[@hrslknatu]

Stunning, the color, the entire painting is breathtaking. It really touched me, great job!

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you so much!❤

[@markaugustus4064]

I'm not a huge fan of surrealism but watching your creative process and work was quite thrilling.

[@rebeccamartin3744]

As I watched the progress, I thought this perfectly encapsulates the poem The Raven by Poe. Great job 👍

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you Rebecca!!!❤

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you so very much!❤🙏😊

[@janinafisher101]

Holy mackerel, Sunshine! That was a lot of hours, and if that all came out of our imagination, you are truly incredible! I think that was the most fascinating painting I have watched you paint yet. To see it evolve from one look to the next to the next, then to have the oil paint, and all the details. All I can say is WOW. I hope you got well paid for that. Well deserved! Absolutely exquisite, Ms Dali!

[@paulchavez931]

Amazingly done! Absolutely BeAuTiFuL!💖👍😎🌹

Dear Lyndia. Absolutely amazing artwork. There is only one thing to say, and that is: Dali go home - you've been surpassed.

[@chandarussell]

That’s a fascinating painting. I’d love to know how your mind works. You come up with the most amazing pieces. Bravo.

[@Dismythed]

This one deserves a short. Nicely done.

[@florisabelcastillo7688]

Wow, your imagination/ talent is mind blowing and the music was perfect!!! Thank you o much for sharing ❤

[@jessicalarson3758]

Dude, you could NOT pry this painting from my cold dead hands! It is SO sick Lydia!!! W-O-W!! I Effin LOVE ITTT!!! Some of your BEST work gurl... 4 real. Did you use some of your open acrylics on this one? Just curious... I know you really enjoyed them. I am seriously considering grabbing some to try myself after seeing your review. Thx 4 sharing this! It is SO dope and represents the concept in time in every aspect. I am sure that the great ppl that commissioned this kick a$$ painting were more than tickled pink when they set eyes on it. Damn... it is SOO GOOD! I don't comment much (although I never miss a video) BUT I just HAD to with this one. It is absolutely captivating....moving. EVERYTHING about it is just soooo... ugh... chef's kiss! I noticed you tucked the birds feet... prob best, huh?;) lol. I paused it for so long in three diff places of the video just to admire all the details. Well done gurl!! Much love & take care! P.s. The video was sick as well... the music (reminded me somewhat of Evanesence in some parts. friggin LOVE!)... the ticking clock at the beginning & end...the sketch... EVERYTHING! This one as a whole really set the bar pretty high now! haha!;) LOVE your workk!! :):) ok Ima shh now! lol

[@lydiabroderick867]

Your comment made my day!!! Seriously! I did use some open acrylics on it, but I don't have all the colors yet so I mixed them with regular acrylics. I was over the moon with the results! So thank you for the best comment ever! I so appreciate it!❤❤❤ The customer is super happy with the painting which makes it all worthwhile. Although I would've been happy to keep it.😁

[@judithlund4346]

This is lovely ……….the way you change and evolve the painting is amazing. You’re so talented. ❤

[@doninis1354]

Holy cow, this must have tok you a ad least week to paint. Awsome! And everything with a small brush. Incredible. 👍👏👏👏👏🌹

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you! It did take about a week!❤

[@stephaniepotterart]

The details are on fire! The theme is so we’ll conveyed ! Your creativity is truly endless! Well done! I enjoyed the edit too! Speeding up with a mix of real time, yes! 😃👍

[@stephaniepotterart]

Hey, side note: I haven’t changed my @ name but when I posted I’m seeing there’s a “5594” on it? I’ll need to investigate this.

[@lydiabroderick867]

I believe KZbin assigned handles to people. That happened to me as well. That's what I found out when I looked into it. Double check for sure, but I had noticed an 867 at the end of my name that I didn't put there.

[@jcofortco]

STUNNING. ❤

[@laurienye7514]

That is amazing, I love it, the colors are magnificent and so is the artwork.

Holy guacamole, I love this painting! What an awesome idea, & it came together perfectly... It's amazing how much the oil paint adds when you start layering over the acrylic. I really like the background music here too!

Imagination meets symbolism with a whole lot of talent and skill thrown in! Mind blowing (is that appropriate?) I really like the detail and beauty of the hourglass. With the red sand, of course and the sky is something to be proud of… I’ve always liked the sky in paintings myself. Awesome!

Bela Arte e Artista!

[@audreyjohnston999]

As I watch this I thought that if I had this painting in my house, it would put me over the edge! Then, I thought is it a blackbird, a crow or a raven! I would need to read about bird symbolism! Why the clock ? Why the candle? Why an hourglass, where the sands of time are hearts? White face, a sigh of purity as time moves on? Old clock, complicated mechanism? This painting would compel me to spend time, looking, researching symbols and would give me endless hours of just learning to appreciate it? That is the sign of a great painting! IT WOULD MAKE A FABULOUS LABEL FOR A WINE BOTTLE! Quick question?lIn song “ why did all the light go out in Massachusetts?” Love it Love your work Cheers from Niagara

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you Audrey! There is a lot of symbolism in there. I'm glad you like it! As far as the lights going out in Massachusetts... That was either a filming mishap or an editing mishap.😁

[@kellysawyer5881]

Brilliant!!!!

[@wz6945]

I have watched this video several times and I just can’t get over how breathtaking it is. The whole idea and concept and they way you develop it is simply mind blowing. How do you come up with these ideas and turn them into these gorgeous paintings??? I am so curious about your thought process from beginning to end! I love all your paintings but I think that “Balance” which was a mixed media painting and this one are my very favorites. Can’t wait to see more mixed media paintings of abstract portrait realism. You are truly one of a kind artist!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@lydiabroderick867]

Thank you so much! I usually do a lot of sketching and it sounds weird, but it's kind of like automatic writing. It will start out as one thing and slowly becomes something else. Then I start to get ideas about more imagery which corresponds with the base sketch. It's like layering thoughts. Although "Balance" was the direct result of how I was feeling at the time. I should have called it "out of balance"😁 I am working on a mixed media goddess portrait series now... So that should be fun.

[@ginajennings1664]

Absolutely fabulous. The music fit perfectly also. I throughly enjoyed watching this.

[@kellyw6652]

If you ever change your mind on that let me know. I am leaving my job in February and going full on with my art and I know having a mentor you admire has a huge impact. I have been painting for almost 40 years now and have enjoyed watching my art evolve. We currently have similar styles and would love to chat with you on some of your processes if you ever care to do so! Again LOVE your work!
