Surreal painting can often be a liberating process as there is less to worry about the right or wrong way of doing things. The predefined standards that have tight control over other genres are far more fluid here. In surreal painting there is the freedom to express more easily, without the need to be especially good at depicting one form or the other. And perhaps that is what makes it so appealing.
Although I already got the idea for this painting a few years ago, somehow I first now ended up materializing it. It's about a journey of a man traveling the path of inner exploration. The path takes a lifetime and it revolves around his interpretation of life experiences. The experiences and the uniqueness of his interpretation makes him what he is...
Amazing... I like the way he drips and sortof looks like a snake at first glance. Love the coloring and blending too. Also the philosophical theme is thought-provoking. Keep it up!
i like this picture, very unique style to it, looks like the figure is coming out of the painting, great work. hope you dont mind, im going to use you as an artist model for art at school.
I adore this particular work of art, very appealing. There are many aspects here that may not seem obvious, but your construction of the artwork brings it forcefully into exsistance and gives us viewers a glimpse before it can run and go back into hideing. I say the geatest aspect is trying to find that construct, that basic feeling, after viewing it for the first time.
Shows the haphazard process of liberation from the massive distortion contemporary culture imposes on the mind. The blackness being the mental prison induced by norms of society. A powerful image.
In mid 1995 I bought my first 3D software called Bryce and have been using it ever since.
It's great for landscape creation and much else.
In fact Bryce has been essential for the creation of most of my sci-fi, surreal and space artwork.
A 3D software I can highly recommend:
