Description
I worked hard on this one especially because I tried to get across an important message.The girl in white on the darker background and the one in black on the light part of the background are like that one purpose. It gives nice contrasts and more depth to what I was trying to portray.
It started from the general saying that "there is no black and white, but it's more shades of gray".
There is no pure good, and there is no pure evil. There's like percentages of both, sometimes in equal amounts and sometimes one being more than the other.
The model in white was supposed to be the image of purity. Of course wannabe purity, kinda like many of the people I have to deal with everyday. They're all smiley and friendly, but they're just looking for an opportunity to stab you in the back and then act all innocent about it. Her expression is supposed to be of surprise, that fake surprise and denial I was writing about above.
And the model in black, well when I saw her the first thing that came to me when I saw her head lowered like that was humility.
The cracked earth is the thin line between good and evil and how easily can one cross from one side to the other

FINALLY! This is what i feel about everything!
There will never be anything like fairy tale love... The Light is never truly good or pure it has a strong firm side while the Darkness maybe currrpoted and stuff but with darkness what the hell do we learn from or gain our emotions from?! Nothing in this world comes for free, everything has a sacrafice! Nothing is this world could live with only Light OR Darkness.
A world completely of LIGHT: A world where we're completely blinded(if not burn to death ) and where order is made and not ble to make a signle error (or
)
A World completely of DARKNESS: A world where we are misguided and lost(like being blind and if we don0t freeze to death ), Choas and only choas exists, soon everything will kill itself.
I mean I love this photo... it just like I feel like with the world! Light brings darkness and Darkness brings/has Light.
"Nothing lost nothin' Gain"

I love how you depicted the struggle between good and evil and the various degrees of both (and how the line between is blurred). You told an awesome story... The piece is stunning...

Sweet!! Excellent usage of light and shade with the concept. I have to agree with you and it's very sad because many people believe that but are still blinded by only two points of view. I think we have a contest winner!!

I know what you mean. And it just got me thinking on how some people are desperately trying to influence people the other way around (the good people to do bad things and the bad ones to make them good). It's just sad sometimes people can't accept one another with their positive and negative traits it has already proven by centuries that the two can co-exist if well-balanced

le construiesc?
cred ca asta e printre alea putine "construite" adica intai a fost ideea si apoi lucrarea ca de obicei pornesc de la cate un stock pe care vreau sa-l folosesc

I love how you portraied (sp?) how easy it is to be more evil than pure.

FrozenStarART In reply to nymphofwater [2008-07-18 07:09:54 +0000 UTC]
that's not exactly what I was trying to portray here. It was actually that there's both and that they have to be balanced

that is an amazing way to express the light and the dark not just because it is easy to understand but because the concept keeps its meaning
