SciFi and Fantasy Art: The Wood Countess

I see more of you within her features everytime I look at! You captured so much power and energy of synthesis; and there is something so profound about the feeling I get when looking at her face-like an almost disturbing balance of peace and violence, calm and chaos...like the spectrums of life itself-the life of the Wood...raw and wild and untamed; open to those who are open unto themselves.

Jennifer Varon replies: "Yes, I see myself alot in this too...a side of myself anyway, and i do see more, the more i look at it...*Huggles *"

I love that beautiful green of her skin

Jennifer Varon replies: "Yes, I seem to be fixated on blue green skin.."

This is simply awesome! I see calmness. she seems very intent on something and very in control. As always I Love your use of colors.

Jennifer Varon replies: "Hey there!So wonderful to see you here! Yes, there is definitely alot of resolve and determination in her.."

Absolutly amazing. I realy like it. The colors shapes and forms are all very much like a vivid dream. She seems to have a very somber look in her eyes like she regrets leaving someplace, someone, or something. Like she's a prisoner in her beautiful forest. I love the wonderfull darkness of this piece wich realy adds to that somber feeling, and realy tickles the darkness in myself. Like all your pieces this is particularly like remembering a dream, or perhaps a past life, and wishing i was there again. Its strange how able you are to convey such strong, obvious translations of the subconcious. Almost like you are creating without the aide of your concious mind at all. You wouldn't, by any chance, be sleep-painting?Lol, again simply wonderous!

Jennifer Varon replies: "...Intuitive as always.I think she regrets leaving...everywhere she ever felt happy, as I do, when I'm in between places...the imprisoned feeling goes along with that, and as I said above to Anneke, extreme anger and stagnation is what happens when I ignore my intuition and don't move forward out of fear.I did this the day I realized I needed help with dealing with my emotions, sometimes it takes extreme despair or extreme frustration and anger to get one moving. she feels feverish in some way to me, this whole piece does."

This is amazingly beautiful. Such original clothes! It has a beautiful somber feel to it. I really am enjoying all the art in your gallery.

Looking good as usual Jen, always envy your courage with colour

Lovely textures and colors as always. Great clothing as well; her unusual green skin tone works beautifully in this picture.

I have pictures like that, that vibrate something deep and terrifying within me. I find that once I assimilate them, though, the pictures' hold on me fades. This lady does seem to hold a huge amount of power, and power can be used both for good or for bad, you should work with her, and learn how to make her work for you. She seems to have the potential to hold all the powers of the forest at her command. Write a story about her, I find that helps me a lot.

I really like this. It's so complex and moody and magical.

She has a kind of cold and calculating look on her face...it's kind of like she gets mad, then gets even! *GRIN* The colors and lighting are spectacular!
