I'm a touch late in uploading this one, sorry. I got a touch caught up in another project and forgot this was still sitting on my hard drive all lonely like.
Whole working on Wings, I came to realize that the minimalists really were on to something, though they took the whole thing just a bit way too far. There really is a beauty and power to simple things. A beauty and power that I often forget about and lose in neurotic complexities and detail. After the initial sketch for this piece, I decided that I needed to keep as much of that as possible and resist the urge to toss in distractions and what not into the background (it's just so easy to do that).
This piece was created entirely in Painter IX. It's digital, though I'm not too sure what kind of digital (well, it's definitely not a photo manip ). Whether it's more drawing or painting, I haven't a clue. It's both, so I ended up tossing it in the mixed media section after a brief freighting flash back to my professors relentlessly asking me the difference between a drawing and a painting.

Just added this to my available prints as requested
This has to rank up there as one on my favorites of your Graver, and you have some other very beautiful work. But there is just something about this one that I am not quite able to put my finger on... maybe it is the color, or the mood, or the something, that makes me not able to look away.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
