Description wikipedia:
Ra, is the third eye, the place where you can sense and travel (now or to a past life). The symbol of sun and light is a reference to the spiritual other world, which is also another common meaning among the Egyptians for Ra. As Ra lies within, it is immune to words...


Too seldom do we open ALL three of our eyes
Enjoy this image and I hope you all like the alien sky... this was a very difficult piece!





:: Full-view is a must as always!
:: Made with Apophysis (custom flame)
:: Composed in Adobe Photoshop CS2
:: Print should be available shortly..

hey, i love the concept behind this one, it is very close to what i practice and believe spiritually. As for the composition, i really like the flowing and watery feel to it, i also like the choice of colours as well, and the points of golden light are really cool hehe you should come check out my pieces some day, i would greatly appreciate it

JLarenART In reply to M1CHE113Frick [2007-07-29 01:19:36 +0000 UTC]

It's listed in every deviation description.... yet I still get asked this a lot

Apophysis for fractal rendering.... Photoshop for postwork.

Not really, just getting the shape of the "temple" to what I wanted was a tad frustrating

ARomanov [2007-02-26 03:48:38 +0000 UTC]

Breathtakingly beautiful.....but the deeper meaning adds to such visual beauty......"the third eye".....for me this is akin to the sixth sense...~Anya

JLarenART In reply to ARomanov [2007-02-27 03:31:45 +0000 UTC]

I am very glad you read the words and appreciate the meaning
It is indeed like a sixth sense, and I think it's a sense EVERYONE has.. they just do not realize!

Thank you for the fav Anya

ARomanov In reply to JLarenART [2007-02-27 04:29:04 +0000 UTC]

Ah....it is so good to meet another who is in touch with this sense...and I agree....we all have this sixth sense...but most do not realize they have it....or is it posible they do not have it strong enough to notice? I knew at 11 years old......it is more a case of shutting it up to get some peace at times for me........More like....**I don't want to know so much***
Please do not thank me for the fav....the pleasure is mine to see it in my collection.....thank you!

JLarenART In reply to ARomanov [2007-03-10 01:28:46 +0000 UTC]

I would agree... this sixth sense--intuition, will, ability to leave the body... recognizing "energy"--this we ALL have, but few realize

amazing work as always. the colors you've used here are totally mesmerizing. i love the golden glow within all of the deep red.

Thanks Mariam
I'm glad you like the colour... I have been thinking that sometime I will re-visit this image and make a new one, but have it much closer up... with detail of the "temple" and everything. It's a nice thought anyway..

this is very intriguing! At first I thought the thing on the right was a girl, and then I maximized it
But I really do like this=]

Wow...I really need to explore Apo a bit more if I'm gonna find such a wonderful flame as this! Wonderful gradient choice and composition. The flow is great. Nice job!

JLarenART In reply to TwilightAmbiance [2007-02-17 10:29:35 +0000 UTC]

Thanks again, I appreciate both your favs!

As far as Apoph, it definitely takes some experimenting and time like anything (as I'm sure you've found). The difference in my fractal art compared to most is that I take renders and make them into more through postwork

JLarenART In reply to ajc1986 [2007-01-30 17:59:19 +0000 UTC]

Heh, thanks a lot! I know what you mean, sometimes I am baffled in the some way of other's work, especially outside of my medium. That's what makes art fun I think

Cheers for the fav as well.
