There's a story behind this picture, but I don't know what it is. I drew it on whim.

All that detail is a pleasure to gaze at.

uber awsome girl!
I love the unicorns legs.. but what im more interested in is what they are pulling.. just what is in that lil carridge?? hehe

:-) Jasmin Islam replies: "It's a kind of egg-shaped glass dome, part-filled with water, with a fish trapped inside. I don't have a clue what it's all about ... *grins* If you want a better explanation, you could read Rian Sanderse's comment up there."

I love this one a great deal, as well as the cello one. This is absolutely brilliant (I like the word absolutely). Not only does it create a fascinating story in your mind, that is the story that you can make it be. This is genius, everything in this picture is stunning and flawless. (I think that the fish in the egg thingy represents the unicorn who was once more than a unicorn and was transformed by the woman and punished by becoming her pack horse, the birds are also transformed beings)I had to share my thoughts. I am in love with this picture. Great stuff!

Amazing picture! I love it! It combines so much of the things i like - its both delicate, sophisticated, and horrible! And of course, very, very unique! I luv the way your mind works, keep it up!

I would refute that this one is terribly dark, but...looking at some of the little details - the distinct lack of blood in the unicorn's wound makes me wonder if it's still alive or just reanimated, for instance...and is that a *dead* bird flying above the Lady?

The lady does have a regal or noble quality to her...

Great imagery...not sure if it'd have its place on my wall, but I'd definitely say it's a keeper.

She looks like Death's lover. At least that's the first think that came to my mind when I saw it.

This reminds me of this part in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet where Mercutio (I think it's Mercutio anyway) is talking about the fairy queen, Mab. Your picture doesn't exactly match the imagery, but the feeling is the same.

This is very well drawn, and I really like the style that you used in it. It seems solid somehow.

I really really like this piece. I disagree that it is 'evil', I think they are just.... special.... yeah, very special.....

Anyway, this is definitely my fave in your gallery. The unicorn deviates from horse conformation in a good way, and its horn is plain cool. I love its collar/wreath/neck thingy/whateveritisblob and the cart shaft stabbing into it. For some obscure reason, the fish in an egg-bowl seems to fit perfectly. I'm not gonna say everything I like about this piece, because we'd be here too long, but the whole picture is just awesome.

Your concepts are so dark, and disturbing, one cannot help but be intrigued. You have a gift and a wicked imagination. The brutality and stark evil reflected in the picture is captivating.
