Yes, often melancholy is beatiful...
But this work is uncanny and fantastic.

Ok this gets a +fav, I couldn't agree more with the sentiment. The concept of melancholy being a comfort zone is a constant theme in my work. So this makes a connection with me. The symbolism is apt too.

Hi,

How are you?
I find that Melacncholy make me feel so inspired and creative....It seems like we feel the same about it.

Thanks so much for the comment.

Yes, I've had a week where emotionally I've been up and down. I find the turmoil drives my creativity. So I agree that melancholy is an inspiration.

I know exaclty what you are saying, isnt it amazing how that works, when you are under trauma you creativity is on a high, i wonder why that happens...

The lines on the wrist, the sorrow in the eyes, the mind on fire filled with the image of some golden ideal.

i really love this, the surrealism alive and well in most of your works but this also has a softer more vulnerable feel to it, unlike many of your what i would call "mechanical" peices they remind me of i think his name is giger

the touch of blue is perfect and the head in the hands is beautifully done
a definate fave on this one well done

Yes, melancholy can be really beautiful. So beautiful. Sometimes I feel melancolic and I don't want this to stop cause it's so "perfect", so... I don't find the words.

I really like the concept, and the entire image but the cup. I find it ugly; it has nothing to do with the flammes, I don't know why. Maybe it's better: it separates the "tragic", "hard" side of melancholy and the burning side, the one we find beautiful.

obselete-angel In reply to Aroke [2006-01-10 10:47:31 +0000 UTC]

I also do love the feeling and feel so inspired to create when i feel that way.

I can understand that you dont like the cup , but atleast there are certain elements that you so like.
When i create i never really know what the outcome is i just keep going until i feel satisfied.

Thanks so much for the comment !

Alo.............
Happy Newyear pumpkin!

Your technique is just profound! Blending is done perfectly!
The textures are just beautiful!
Ligths and darks and the contrast is super-realistic!
Reminds me of David Ho's work, but you have developed your own unique style and have made it your own!!
Beautiful work!!!

Man, this year is going to be a great one, im going to concentrate really hard with the art and make lots of pieces.

We are just trying to get a company started , this year we want to become independant , no more working for bosses. Still living in the same place, it is beautiful and we are happy there.

Life is cool , we just want to start making things better and try earn some extra cash.
We printed 24 T-shirts with mine and charle's designs and are very happy with the way they look, we want to try sell them, charle has also started to make awsome bracelets out if silver and semi precious stones, so we will try and sell those too.

My mother is living in London now too, so she is trying to get us work permits so that we can go and join her there, there is a small positbility that we can get over there, so i hope so , if so we will be able to come visit you in Canada .

So what been up with you ??

I really adore how you make these humanoids of yours look like old weathered iron statues.
Great great work, indeed... and even though I'm a bit lost for words and cannot fully express what I want to say (been a very long and eventful day and my brain has shut down for the night lol) I really admire your art and your skills.
Thank you for all the comments and favs aaand the watch, too, btw... I am truly flattered.

Hey, you're very welcome. Your imagery is very original in my opinon and has strong messages, also your technique is a subject to be envious of

Um how do you best describe Denmark?
Small, coasy, without edge and at the moment damp and gray lol
Whereabouts in SA do you live?
