I love how sweet and innocent this creature looks at first glance, all peaceful, and simple, but at further observation it becomes obvious that it is a strong and probably even wise beast.
The body is fluid, and spirit like, as if this would be an element, not a single mortal being, but by its interaction with the tiny short living butterfly it becomes very Earthly indeed.
The colours of this piece also look simple, pastel, nothing to special dreamy, but the way it has those very deep blues, and vibrant reds incorporated, makes it very much like life, the colour palette has a nice edge to it.
I think this picture captures the very soul of a being.
If I'd had to point out something I would have done different, I'd try to do the outlines of the butterfly more like the other lines, no so defined and sharp, less planned, more fluid.
To me this represents the journey through life, and the guidance that we can choose to follow or not to follow.
Great work!

Β Delicate and intricate execution. Superb choice of colors and placement of them. Wonderful composition, this work grabbed my attention from among many others. IMO the Butterfly is a juxtaposition that works. The ethereal nature of the stag is contrasted nicely by the solid form of the butterfly. A work that challenges the viewers conception of the natural world and the spiritual.
The viewer brings a collection of ideals, concepts, prejudice, beliefs etc to a piece and those views are impacted by a successful artwork. They may be reaffirmed, challenged or rebutted. This work would do so to effectively IMO. Wonderful.Β

Oh my goodness. If I had money, I would buy this as a print. You are simply the master of beautiful colours and dreamy subjects. The antlers are a work of art.

This is an amazing picture. I love how the pain drips and pools together but still leaves that distinguished line between areas.Β
