Description
Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance?You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy.
You will again have compassion on us; you will tread our sins underfoot and hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea.
Micah 7:18-19 (NIV)

A keen aesthetic of immersion generated; an eloquent composition.

"full fathom five"... it reminds me of shakesphere's poem. I never really thought much about abstract, but this is awesome! and yes, after reading the verse, i could imagine dark things being thrown away into the sea to be swallowed up and forgotten forever... meh, i'm turning poet again.

Thanks; I'm glad that you were able to grasp the meaning of it because abstract works are very difficult to comprehend for some people... (:

I can pretty much get an acurate aesthetic response to most stuff (save maybe for Mondrian; that's when I just feel bored/calm...in an "artistic" way if you know what I mean.)

I've never had that experience with Mondrian, but yes, I know what you mean... (:

i lk kadinsky better. who's your fave artist

I like Kandinsky too, especially his early period work; but the artist that I love is Van Gogh because all his works move my spirit and cause me to become emotional, to the point of crying. He'll always be my favorite!

Wow....this one really moved me because there's so many things that you can't express or explain about His mercy but this catches a glimpse of it. Beautiful!

It's a great abstract, very energetic and harmonic at the same time.

im always amazed at your work.
now i've never used illustrator, so do you basically use your tablet to draw straight into that and then use photoshop to finalize add brushes at all, or is it all drawing? pardon my ignorance, i would just love to know how this art is done as i only scribble on paper in class and use photoshop.

Thanks and thanks for the fav too! But to answer your question: I don't sketch or scribble at all on paper, but go to the program (in this case Illustrator) and use my tablet & pen to draw straight into it. I use all the tools and default brushes (sometimes I make my own) in Illustrator and basically play around with shapes, brushes, colors etc... to get the desired effect. I'd encourage you to do the same; in your case, just go on photoshop and start putting shapes/colors together and see what happens (you don't need to really have a concept/idea). Hope this helps...
