Artist's Comments

Based on an image from (thank you!) I just kinda did this one as it came to me. Like so many others, I started it while watching a movie...and had no friggin clue where I was going with it.

Fluid Acrylic on drk. slate blue colourfix paper. I used gloss medium this time, and quite like the effect. Can't tell from a scan though, but it makes almost a satiny leather like surface.

Anyway, I got kinda sick of staring at it and tweaking so I signed it and posted. :P

for some reason this reminds me of a demonic character, and not in the evil way. def ocean/water symbolism for me, but i dunno...very demonish as well

hey, I used gloss medium on my skyscape painting! ;) I really hate how glossy it comes out, but it's nice sometimes. this is really beautiful, and I love how you've totally made the original stock image your own! It seems like a lot of people just change one thing about the original stock image and call it their own.

Yeah, gloss medium is a bit on the glossy side, and makes work a pain in the A to photograph, but satin works too. I just love how the varnish brings out the color. I don't think I've ever used it on a canvas painting, only paper/board type illustrations. ^_^

I try to use stock imagery as a jumping off point, or a vehicle for ideas more so than making an exact replica...most of the time.
