well its a scientific theory that in some far away galaxy there has to be proper condotions for the existence of a star they nicknamed the blue moon.
ive seen a program about that and they tried to visualize what life on the blue moon will look like considering the climate on it.
so one of the things that they said was on the blue moon is ballon flower which look very much alike with those in your painting.so i thought its somehow connected because of the similaraty.there where a bunch of other things on that blue moon like flying whales and gigantic flys,i find it hard to believe we can actually tell how these creatures look like but it still was ineresting to see what life on another planet might be like.
i hope it helped man its kinda amazing that the baloon flowers in your painting look just like the ones in the theory

Thanks, I did'nt know that theory but I'm painting moonflowers and dreaming of them since 1985... My planet is called OmounΓ€e and those moonflowers are producing gaz heart allowing them to fly with the winds of the planet...

In fact, I don't dream that much, there are more like visions coming anywhere in a bus, at home...but yes I have a lot of these visions, I already had enough to paint it my whole life through!

It's difficult to say, you're watching or thinking of something anf then an image is appearing in your mind, complete, colourful and sensitive like if it was true...

you really freak me out, in a good way. you reset my logic system and make me think there is far more to reality than my boring office life. you soften and blur my reasoning while i sit here confused wondering how you do what you do with your intricate tropical art. if this piece didnt have the naked people (and im not so sure it would have the same impact without them) i would favorite it and use it as my desktop. but i babysit kids that use this machine so i cannot do that... but i still fantasize about your images... so thank you. : )

Thank you for your kind comment and I hope idid'nt shock you too much with my naked people!Well to be nude in this world has not the same meaning that it could have in America.
In this realm sexuality is not evil, it's a bow to the Great Mother Goddess who does'nt forbid pleasure like a sin!

this is awesome stuff, spills imagination all around. the balloons remind me of Frank Herbert's trilogy (Pandora, Lazarus and Jesus if my memory doesn't fail me). he had these flying aerostat creatures, they were intelligent as a common consciousness (god-like almost).

This is beautiful. I love your use of color. And the organic balloons are a wonderful idea. These concepts you have in your paintings are just astounding.

I hope you don't mind my saying that some of the details are slightly creepy too.

beautiful. the whole scene. the tiny detials of things such as the grass growing out of the balloons are such a wonderful and imaginitive touch and the people/landscape/statue they all look so perfect. You are an amazing artist. the colors you use are also perfect. I cant wait to see what you will submit next..
