"The Emerald Gate" by Lisa Coleman

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 48 out of 57 by Lisa Coleman. ←Previous - Next→

Item censored due to its Parental Rating level (#2 of 4), as set by the artist...


	This one will be a lot more elaborate one day, this is a pleasant middle phase. It's from a meditation/visualization I undertook, trying to duplicate Innana's descent to the Underworld. This was the fourth gate, ruled by my intuition. Pencil and Photoshop

8 Oct 2003	Rochelle Green	Loading... The work on the gate itself is amazing. You have captured the feel of sheets of emerald - I dont think I could do that! I am really in awe of it.
29 Oct 2003	Jen	Loading... She kinda reminds me of something of the Wizard of Oz, you know the Emerald City thing, but I love the way you did everything on this, she looks great and very unique. I wish to be able to draw like you someday. I like the color green to, it's not my fav color but i still like it, it is a BEAUTIFUL peice of art.
7 Dec 2003	Jennifer Lyn Burlingame	Loading... While I have the same name as the above commenter, I don't have the same interpretation. I don't think it looks at all Wizard-of-Ozish.. It's darker, and more meaningfull . I love the concept here, I can't wait to see her in final form.
20 Dec 2003	Rebecca Carr	Loading... Very interesting. I once tried a meditative technique like that and I've often thought of depicting what I saw in a painting. The blending of violet and green in the stones/crystals is quite impressive, though it does remind me of the Emerald City in The Wizard of Oz (please don't hit me!)
