This is quite fantastic! All of the loose brushstrokes up to the halo are really very appealing. I'm liking the little dashes of rust color here and there too.

It is a shame not many people commented on this beautiful painting.
I really like the idea . I wonder how you happen to stumble upon such a great idea .
I love the colour pallette you used. While mostly dark colours, the overall is not so dark at all.
beautiful work

I really really like your style, the way you put the paint on it is amazing.
It gives of a very strong vibe.
I also like the angel you chose to work with.
Really really nice!

the halo figures remind me of the peace figures you'd see orbiting earth in some pictures i've seen (illustrations) in the past. Someone mentioned cardboard cutout thoughts, that and/or peace on the brain is a very interesting concept.....

Oh, this is brilliant! To me it's that feeling when you can't separate your own thoughts from the things you've been told. Nicely done.

Raugust [2006-08-28 18:31:02 +0000 UTC]

Although I would not presume to have a similar interpretation of the image than you do, this work speaks to me, in a clear, uncracked voice. I can think of no more noble halo, out of all the worlds of gods and angels, nor a more noble crown, out of all the worlds of princes and kings. Yet there is a melancholy in such beauty.

One word.. WOW.. The way you have used these paper-dolls that we all made when little, is so great, and the colour on the against the grey really brings life into the painting, and a contrast against the 'death' and sadness in the rest. The shading of the head, and the face is so catching.. the mood he is in..

Wow! A very stark image. Suggests that his thoughts were 'cardboard cutouts.......?' to me.

gillybeenz [2006-06-29 06:29:59 +0000 UTC]

It would seem you don't just paint for the 'pretty', but for the 'smarts' too. If that makes any sense. Love it.

AmEyeForever [2006-06-29 00:52:01 +0000 UTC]

I really love this piece; I'm a big fan of the loose brushwork contrasted with the clean halo. Great concept for the halo, too. However, I don't really understand the seemingly random hints of orange. They don't seem to be highlighting anything important or directing my attention to anything in particular. Bright orange against darks is a nice touch, but could it perhaps have been more well-placed?

Jesterz-dance [2006-06-28 22:52:51 +0000 UTC]

This is really lovely. It's expresionnistic; but at the same time, it's an awesome render. Was this done in oil or acrylic? really great job!

innocuus-admirato [2006-06-28 00:53:17 +0000 UTC]

I love this, especially the stark contrast between the crisp lines of the 'halo' and your usual style where the strokes are largely visible.

I always love your work.
