The concept of Visitants is a very interesting one; they're certainly powerful creatures, but I don't get a foreboding or ominous sense from them at all...that's nicely done. [psst, I'm having a wonderful time perusing your gallery; do keep up the lovely work!!]

The feeling one gets from the Visitant varies depending upon one's mood and state of mind.
I am pleased you are enjoying my work! Thank you!!!

Gate to where? It looks so mysterious and I'm curious, your painting always tell a story. You just have to read carefully.

Beautiful. I love your use of materials and how the colors compliment each other that makes them seem to glow. The figure is statuesque and beautiful in it's solitude.

owl-shaman [2010-07-20 01:47:59 +0000 UTC]

This has such a mysterious air to it. It makes me think of the kind of figure who has a strange history and a large burden upon his/her shoulders that they don't want to mention but are reminded of by the passing second.
It kind of makes me sad and nostalgic..

Beautifully done, absolutely stunning, and deliciously emotional.

Hands down to your cloaked figures. I could not be happier with what you did with this one XP I like the collages very much toward mid-cloack.

Looks like it would be hard to get by him.
Have you ever met someone who was quiet and stern, but whom you really wanted to get to know? This figure reminds me of such persons.

Interesting way to interpret this. Yes, I would imagine this figure would be difficult to near impossible to pass by.

I don't if you've ever heard of the comic series called Sandman by Neil Gaimen, but this reminds me of the character Destiny from that comic. I like this alot

SethFitts In reply to madam-cicus [2010-07-19 14:22:25 +0000 UTC]

I used to read that comic! They made a one shot type of comic (maybe more) of Destiny illustrated by Kent Williams and Rebecca Guay.
This isn't associated with that character but I can see the resemblance. Thanks!

i love this one , specially how you use the light blue in the drawing , matching that colour with the other one's is sure something quiet hard
great work

exquisiteoath [2010-07-19 13:08:47 +0000 UTC]

Not much to offer on this one, it's lovely and all but seems to be lacking some of the complexity of "Awake".

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

SethFitts In reply to exquisiteoath [2010-07-19 14:17:00 +0000 UTC]

This one is a lot smaller than "Awake". I don't know if it makes a difference but the complexities in my work varies according to size and subject matter. In addition, the complexity on my part was the collage work in the cloak of the figure. After doing all the collage work I decided that was enough for this piece.
Thank you much for your input.
