Description Angels, they fell first but I'm still here
Alone as they are drawing near
In heaven my masterpiece will finally be sung

Wounded is the deer that leaps highest
And my wound it cuts so deep
Turn off the light and let me pull the plug

Mandylion without a face
Deathwish without a prayer
End of hope
End of love
End of time
The rest is silence

Nightwish

I'm always afraid to comment on your work, because I think you must be getting tired of me just telling you how awesome you are,

Still, though, this is beautiful. I love the way you can take your photo-manipulations and give them that classical, ephemeral look, almost like an oil-painting. This one's an easy favourite.

Mithgariel In reply to barrierlife [2009-03-04 19:34:48 +0000 UTC]

Actually, I'm not tired. I'm not that popular and there aren't thousands or even hundreds of people telling me anything.

Oil painting is a part of my style. Like I always say - I compensate for my lack of skill in actual painting.

Bullocks. As far as I can see, there's no lack of skill anywhere in this. Recognizing and utilizing a strength doesn't suggest in any way that you have a weakness to compensate for, only that you're that much better an artist than most. *nods sagely*

What I mean is that I've always wanted to paint and draw. I still do. Now with tablet I can at least do it more than usually.

I love this. It reminds me of a sad fairy story forsome reason, perhaps the little match girl. Lovely!

Straight out of a fairytale, this I feel swept away by the movements of her arms, guided effortlessly along with the feathers to some faraway land that seems eternally youthful and compelling from here...

It is great and easy to work with very powerful stock images, and these were. Had been sitting on my harddrive forever, waiting for that right evening. After almost a year, it came.

She reminds me of Mona Lisa for some reason... o_o
The background is so beautiful <3

Mithgariel In reply to Dhuaine [2009-02-23 21:04:24 +0000 UTC]

Ha! So I'm not the only one
Background is partially my manipped and partially the original. Both stock pieces had sat on my harddrive for ages. Somehow today they came together.
