Absolutely stunning.
Even just on a screen, it's rippling with intensity and malice. I am beyond impressed.

I'm not an artistic person by any means, so I have a difficult time expressing what I think about these masterpieces of art.
Just believe me when I say that I am stunned.
Cheers

I can testify to the fact that it IS Kevin's work. And it's something to see. You're right this one is especially rich in context and intensity, one of my favorites. (As proof that's even me floating up there above Jan Hus- the tiny little wingless angel in black sillouhette- I was honored, let's just say I earned it.) It did take four weeks, was that all? I remember he rarely left his studio. I think I reminded him that he had to eat a time or two. Maybe change his clothes now and again. ;-> He gets that singular vision, lives and breathes it. It's endearing and maddening at the same time-and for that and so many other like reasons, we tend to just love him anyway.

Oh my, I've never seen *that* link before. If you're gonna link, could you not at least link images where I look ravishing and ethereal? How do I get links in here...?;-> Indeed I do. In any case, they say that even muses who lurk in the shadows still can see the beauty there...

Oh thanks, I like the soulful way, when it was. I like this onebetter [[link] I'm the petite one on the right and the beautiful one is our friend Noosha. It was fun, we got to be ethereal Kev played This Mortal Coil for us.... I wish you could see the piece in real life. It looks pretty on the compter as well, but it's quite something in actuality. I hope Kev does more with large scale work...

utterly gorgeous.
simple words for such grandeur.
How I wish I had money to buy a print!
And why is it so impossible to believe that "everyday" people could have this artistic talent? It's... wonderful.

Though there is so much good work on this site, this particular image would have justified the entire trip itself.
So beautiful.

in that case, i love it, I think this is a very expressive piece, raw emotion is flowing from it and I think you have considerable talent.
