| 29 Jan 2007 |  Lea A.Travis | This is so unique...I love it. Interesting facial structure, though. To the above commenter: I dont think you can tell that easily if it is male or female. You cant see the ribs or hips in detail to know  Angels are typically male, with many female features. Keep up the great work!   Shelz Keast replies: "All the above comments are for another of my pictures which was accidently overidded and deleted when I uplaoded this one, so they wont make to much sense. Anyway thanks for the comment." | |
| 30 Jan 2007 |  Helle Jorgensen | Very intrigueing concept! I can just imagine the exhibitions of the world's museums of natural history with this sort of material. They'd probably have more visitors   Shelz Keast replies: "It would make a reasonable exhibition, probably even out compete Egyptian mummies or dinosaurs. Ever been to the British Museuam? It's got quite enough visitors." | |
| 9 Jun 2007 |  Emily H. Phifer | haha -- for some odd reason, I love the coffee rings most =9  Shelz Keast replies: "The coffee rings are there to add a 'humman' touch. I like to think of the archeologist staying up all night studying the fossil." | |
| 9 Aug 2007 |  Anonymous | Not to insult the artist, but this has been seen before - the Simpsons' episode "Lisa the skeptic" in 1997 - they all thought the skeleton with wings was an angel but it was really a ploy to get more business at the new mall. But I agree, awesome artwork and a great concept nonetheless.  Shelz Keast replies: "I haven't seen that episode of the Simpsons, or many others(though I never remeber episode names anyway). A funny thing is, I saw the South Park episode with the catch phrase 'the Simpsons did it'(that may be the proper title). In the end the Chef character says that it doesn't matter if the Simpson's have done something, they've been on the air for, what, 20 years? That's not to say this was an entirely orginal piece anyway. The original inspiration was picture depicting a fosilized cherub, unfortunately I can't rember the name of the picture or the artist (though they were very good). If I see it again I'll mention it.Thanks for the compliment on the artwork." | |
| 6 Nov 2007 |  Kimberly A. Taylor | Referring to the above comment by anonymous, though reminiscent of that simpson's episode, your angel looks nothing like the on on the show; Its much more beautiful and looks far more realistic. nice work and very unique.  Shelz Keast replies: "I don't mind what my pictures remind people of. I'm glad you say it's atleast somewhat realistic: I always strive for realism." | |
| 17 Nov 2007 |  Soupygirl | This is adorable... Love it | |
| 11 Jan 2008 |  Patricia M. D´Angelo | This is one of those pieces that I like the idea behind the picture as much as the picture itself. (It is similar in concept to my 'proof of dragons' picture I made to seem like a caveman painting depicting a dragon hunting horses.) I can't help but wish an archaeologist would turn something like this up. | |
| 7 Feb 2008 | Jessica | i really like the idea of a fossilized faery and the wings are absolutley beautiful/awesome  Shelz Keast replies: "It’s actually meant to be an angel (hence the title). But thanks for the comment all the same." | |
| 19 Mar 2008 |  Stephanie S. K. Marbach | i really like the details you’ve put like the tag with the number and the line to see the lenght in comparison. very well done, and very creative idea  !!!  Shelz Keast replies: "One of a few random computor doodles that wound up presentable." | |
| 22 Mar 2008 |  Désirée Ruth Dippenaar | Nice idea! I like the label on it, and the tea/coffee stains, as though this were lying on a scientist’s desk. Interesting actually, to think of angels this small.  Shelz Keast replies: "Well things tend to start out small and get big (they can also get small again or go extinct). So it makes some sense to have an anceint angel as being small." | |
