Description Piece i made for Neosynthesis chronicle 18: Winter ... I don't think there is much to tell about the piece, it should pretty much speak its own story looking at it ... Anyways i do hope you enjoy it ...

Looking at this one again and again since you submitted it... it definitely has something. Somehow different from your other pieces. The head looks kinda wrong, but in some good, VERY surreal way. Great work on the snow.

I love the piles of snow covering the head and knee. gosh, you have some of the best surreal artwork I've ever seen. I've been drooling over your gallery at Neosynthesis for quite sometime.

This piece made me put on a jacket. I feel cold! Wonderful work and excellent composition. How was the landscape done!? It looks beautiful.

Thanks, im glad you like it ... Well if you mean the parts where he is sitting in the snow, that was done by masking out some snow parts from stockphotos, and then transforming them to fit the angle/perspective where they are used. Then i added curves adjustmentlayers on top of them, and tweaked the colorvalues to get the same color/shade as the surrounding snow. It was a rather tedious task, and at some point i was about to break something lol ... I hope this makes sense ...

Boy does that ever capture a feeling I can relate to (although I may relate to it slightly differently than some, not sure).

smersh84 [2006-02-04 15:54:47 +0000 UTC]

it seems like the flower should be standing for the head but it's not because the snow pushed it aside. my only critique on this is that it seems like maybe the snow is a little too cleanly added on. like it seems like the snow could be integrated more around his shoulders, kneecap, and feet to make the scene look more natural. maybe that was intentional though. great work on this piece!

fernando this is an amazing piece as usual. it is a pity that you just create deviations when your artgroup has a new cronicle.


excellent work man
