| 5 Oct 2002 |  Damon | What, no comments yet? This is a brilliant picture. Everyone knows the story of Eve and the Fall, but not many people think of it as seduction rather than deception. Still fewer portray Eve the way you have: a willing participant wearing a mysterious smile that perhaps says she knows -exactly- what she's getting into, and might even come out ahead in a dance with the devil.
Very cool.
Thanks, this is one of my personal favourites: it's such a simple drawing, but it says so much if one is willing to take the time to look. | |

I think people generally have trouble interpreting work that isn't your stereotypical Tolkein or Dungeons & Dragons based fantasy work.
My work is taking another turn of late: I'm starting to explore the Merovingian mythos, labyrinths, and sacred geometry in my work.. all interesting stuff. | |
| 30 Apr 2004 |  Jennifer Leigh | Wow, this piece is incredible! It appears as though Eve knows exactly what is going on... and she is all ready hiding her nakedness. I've never thought of it as a seduction before, but looking at this work definitely suggests it (the snake being a common symbol not only for Satan but also of male sexuality). Your inking is beautiful. I like it! Hats off to you!
Thank you, it's rewarding to see that not everyone completely misses the point. | |

| 5 Nov 2005 |  Samantha Adams | Amen! the guy above me said exactly what i was thinking...so ditto!  awesome draw! (i love it when people put a different twist on religeous motifs - changes ones point of view. i love that art can do that...) Religious themes are one of my favourite subjects in art.. odd as that might seem if one knows me well. | |
