Artist's Comments

This is a tad self-indulgent. It’s a self portrait of my life so far. This is me, all of me, every single facet face and mood. It’s about my dreams and realities. Everything I present has personal significance.

I have been working on this for 39 days for an average of 4 hours a day. It’s become an absolute obsession, painting every single pixel zoomed in a 400%.


While doing this I listened to the following audio books:

Alice In Wonderland – Carroll
Antichrist – Nietzsche
Childhood – Tolstoy
Heart of Darkness – Conrad
The Call of Cthulhu - HP Lovecraft
Notes from the Underground – Dostoevsky
Relativity – Einstein
Through the Looking Glass – Carroll
Tristan and Iseult

The music that I mostly listened to was Muse was VAST. The title is a VAST song.

I am going to upload details to each bit with explanations if you want. Its 2200px X 2200px you have to view it at this size because most of the details are really small and get lost in previews.

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-07-08

Touched by *8025glome has so much detail and so many emotions that every time you look at it you discover something new. It is literally full of life, as the artist presents through various symbols everything he went through and everything he felt in 27 years. (Suggested by =Cutteroz and Featured by `cosmosue)

Incredible. I'll have to study this one for a while. So much to see, yet, well composed. :+fav:

There is no way to measure an artist, or their work, because nothing matters, but their vision. Their acceptance by the rest of the world is merely external.
