SciFi and Fantasy Art Introspection by Anna Yudovin


	Looking inside oneself, into the roots, the history, the past -- is the necessary first step on the path of renewal. For change to occur, there must be an initial state... Watercolors, gouache and prismacolor pencils. Done for Epilogue's Renewal contest.

19 Mar 2004	Anonymous	Loading... I love this, its great i don't see why anyone hasn't commented on it yet...I'm not an 'artist' myself just a doodler so i can't give any professional input but i like it =0)
2 May 2004	Aimee Maxine Kitchens	Loading... Everything about this one is superb... She has perfect form and symetry, and such a graceful way of holding out the skull and gazeing at it in her searching earnest way. I am a fan. If you don't mind, when I learn to link in my profile, I want to add your page to it so that others can marvel at your fantastic tallent.
9 Sep 2004	Tamara A. Havik	Loading... This picture is very good. The hand that holds the skull is very skillfully drawn and I'm in awe of all the grass you drew, blade for blade. It's an original concept, mixing several elements of historical literature into it. I don't know if it's because the Shakespearian skull ("to be or not to be") or the intent way she looks at it, but the woman reminds me of lady Macbeth, although that one never would be pregnant... An interesting picture all in all. The colours are also very well chosen.
29 Jun 2005	The Question	Loading... This surreal. It is very stylized. The forms you use are exactly right though. I have no idea how you could have done this.
11 Oct 2006	Anonymous	Loading... This reminds me a lot of something that could have come out of "Clan of the Cave Bear". They had different ideas of modesty, could remember memories from ancestors generations before, and used skulls in their ceremonies. Very cool. Good Job.

4 Feb 2007	Egor Malygin	Loading... This is so... I have no words, i just like it... Maybe real...
1 Jul 2008	Israel Josiah Gallegos	Loading... I love the angles to this piece. And yet everything has a fullness to it. One of your best pieces. P.S. To Tamaa A. Havik: the "to be or not to be" from Shakespeare’s "Hamlet" had had nothing to do with the skull. The skull came in later when Hamlet was talking about the old jester and how no matter our position in life, we all end up dead. This happened at the graveyard right before Ophelia’s dead body was brought there.
