SciFi and Fantasy Art: The Future

Very nicely done! I especially like the cat it's a nice touch and points out how a cat is a VERY calming influence when you feel yourself spinning out of control emotionally. I know this from personal experience! Meow!

This is the tarot card The Magician I think... you know this sets me to wondering... there are enough pics like this out here that I think it would be possible to make a really nice Elfwood tarot deck... I have so any projects like this, but I just dont spend enough tie at my compuer to do any of them!

Do you study art? I notice how many of your works seem to have a connection with some artistic movements, thus I thought that. The symbolism, oniricism (???exists this word ???^_^) and your use of colors and shapes is, how to say? It seems to be strongly conscious.

survival and more then survival - rebirth - the city no longer an icon but just a place with a lot of big buildings - largely abondoned - too little nature in it - but remembered as having once been central and then moved on from - a future of much hope - a light of dawn after a mercifuly brief period of less happy times - spirit survives - to build anew - with clearer eyes and further sight ... after the storm - the waters have cleared - they sparkle - which is what makes me see this city as no longer central to human society - the old accumulations of litter and grime having been long since washed away - and society itself having matured somewhat - no longer quite so careless of air and life - but preserves a reminder of our times - before this was so ... ~ 'to be the remainder that will reascend' or rather "the reminder' . thank you! you seem like a fully concious person. a rare thing.

The earthly world had cast him forth, to wander, wander; no living heart to love him now; for his sore miseries there was no solace here.

And you conveyed it very well! The figure is so peaceful, when everything around it is going to hell. Very beautiful...the background is so serenely colored, but chaotic. I did a picture like this once during a computer class when I was mad/bored...not near as nice though, since I used Corel Ciplart (not nearly as genuine!)...but the figure was in the same pose.I like how he floats so peacefully, when the current is so strong.

Thanks...for conveying that. I am entering a very chaotic time...my chaos may not be resolved until sometime in October....ugggh. Meditation, and half-lotus position...the tranquility, and fluidity of water....a rising sun. Surrounded by modern life(drat that modern life). To be honest I haven't fully noticed or realized your lines and geometry yet...not in any analyitical or comment-ish sort of way.....I just enjoyed the feeling, and the wisdom. If you were looking to give wisdom and a strength for "coping with stuff"....then you definitely succeeded. I have no clue about the 'technical' aspects of this as a composition.....I only felt the peace and wisdom. Thanks. You are sweet to share this with us, it is probably very personal for you.....much of your work seems very personal.

The backgroung is really captivating!!And those lil' cats are the cutest on earth!!!

Serenity... and the land becomes the sea, or a river, carrying you away. Leaves the city behind, but gently washes all life onward. To what? Peace, perhaps.

*mewl* *blinks tears away* . . . ACK!! I think I'm a bit in love with your mind.
