New Painting Idea I've Been Trying to put together. "Wisdom"

I did a photo shoot last night, and was playing with the pictures today.  Did a couple of compositions but I really liked this one the most, so Im posting it up.  Let me know what you think.  I love symbolism and need to paint things with meaning.  This painting will be titled "Wisdom".  The girl is sitting on a suspended metal circle while trying to grab a white feather.  The white feather has alot of meaning but what caught my attention the most is that one of them is wisdom.  A feather floating in the air may show your desire to ascend to higher spiritual knowledge or intellectual ambition. The lightness of a feather also implies light heartedness and enjoying the good things in life. They also represent spiritual authority and wisdom.   Im still playing with it, and it might change as i go along, you will see the final product before I start painting it, or when the sketch is done.  This painting will be 30x40 on canvas, maybe larger, still thinking about that.

Photo Shoot Today

I've been working on sketches for some new ideas using circles with the figure.  Today I have a model coming and will be working on some poses etc.  Hope to post the pictures up.  I want to paint larger so this series will be in oils :).
