Description
Graphite on Paper11" x 8"
Further exploration of this idea of the world at large (or small as the case may be). I still don't quite understand the entire meaning of this image. It's easy to say that this is the world that my creatures inhabit. But, that's just the surface of it. Why do they live on a world like this? Why the obsession with bodies? Why does it feel so important that they be gravitating toward one another instead of spread out? Are there other organisms like this one? So on and so forth...

Hey. Just found your gallery. Like your figures and use of sphere . . . It's difficult to find good contexts for figurative work these days.

Legion, I know ^_~. I haven't played any of the games, but I think that boss features in more than one installment. Anyway, some other people informed me of the coincidence, so I've been curious ever since.

I love all the questions that you ask of your artwork. It is funny how the more resolved and complex ones work becomes the less sense it makes.
An excellent image. Very impressed.
How are you going with things, college etc?

that's great, lately i've been toying with the idea of an artwork that has tons of naked dead people lying around/skewered on poles but just thinking of how i'm going to draw all of that seems a bit intimidating, so i really admire your patience with this! and the concept is top notch too!

You got to take it one dead person at a time like anyone else.

This is very unique and creative. It looks like a bunch of people huddled up into one big ball if thats what it is then this deviation must represent unity. As in, if we all work together, then the world would be a better place. Which really is a good message. Good work, I enjoyed it, I cant wait to browse through more of your deviations.

reminds me of (don't you hate it when people say that) legion from castlevania! and for that, i love it. it's fantastically executed. i greatly admire someone who can get a subtle transition of values through graphite crosshatching alone.

interesting concept. i get a sense of entrapment. but not necessarily in a bad way. like everyone is connected and cannot survive without one another. gravity keeps us on this planet. it keeps us in the company of one another. it keeps progression progressing...

wow, mixed emotion.... emotionally or forced bonding? peaceful or mass slaughter? this piece definitly asks questions lol. looking closly appears to reveal deformaties and stuff. but it does appear to be quite peaceful, sleepy and calm. i really like this
my art has little or no meaning in comparision with this lol, but check it out if you want

When I first looked at this the first word that sprang in mind is "armageddon", it felt very biblical, and it's so amazing that you took the idea of creatures inhibiting the world so very literally. I like this.
