Great work here, I imagine it's what a traveler might see while traversing a mythological land. I think the legend goes that to pass bye one must outwit the sphinx with questions or perhaps riddles. If you fail, the sphinx will pounce. In some mythological legend a man outwitted the sphinx and in its shame it cast itself from the cliffs to its death.

Absolutely, Oiedipus solved the riddle then went on to kill his father and sleep with his mother! Man that's tough! Thanks for dropping by.

Wow, this is great, and definitely deserves the DD. The only thing that jars me a bit is that those rays of sunshine don't seem to light anything in the foreground. But that is probably just 'cause of where the clouds are!

BillCorbett In reply to Cassandra28 [2005-06-16 08:47:05 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, I did originally intend the rays to probe further, but it didn't look right when I painted it the first time
