I like this in general, I clicked on the link and I appreciate what you had to say on the topic.. The colors, texture, and movement in this are all very interesting. The blank canvas' and people invite you to use your own imagination.

having just read some of the thoughts on that forum post, alls i gotta say is: "Well I guess that answers THAT."
This is a great blending of styles. Using photoshop is a lot like playing a musical instrument. Some people are fluent, and they make stirring, moving images like a B.B. King blues song. Others blurt out the notes like a novice. You definitely fall into the former category and this piece shows that.

Wheee.. DD
..and yet another beauty. Well, to me it looks like you're showing two types of art. There's some nice looking art hanging up there.. people can look and admire. But that one that stands out.. that's the one painted by the inspired artist, who puts his life, soul, blood, sweat & tears into his work. And it shows.. it reaches out to people.. literally. Sure, it's just a vase of flowers.. but it touches people because of the artist's passion for his work. Yes
Nice work

I really like it.. I'm struggling to understand it, but I like it . Like someone already said, I love the surrealistic feel to it.
I kind of get the impression that the artist guy is stepping out from conformity; everyone else is doing the same thing, but he's had the courage to try something different, and has been greatly enriched through the process...
Maybe there's a moral there for all of us?

awesome job. raising controversial issues that come up on DA by puttin the theme into art is always seems to have a good turn out. i am *slightly* reminded of spx's emoticon smile factory...anyways, this makes more of a point than the posts in the thread. great job

Love the colors in this. I didn't read the thread yet, but what I get out of this is one person is painting and all the others are just following suit? People walk by and like it and do the same..I dunno...that's my interpritation. Fantastic job.

Hey thanks for the comments, I should have known that my 113th deviation would do it (no joke, I have a lot of stuff here) Oh and freespot and ellemenno, I had hardly even thought of some of those, that's what I like most, is when people see some things I don't.

interesting, has certain surrealism in it and i always appreciate that(though i'd like to see more surrealistic elements )
also the perspective is nice and your technique is nice too, nothing "awesome" but it fits nicely in this piece

This is incredible. I love the way tha paintbrush is portrayed as a torch, a fire of passion that has created something 'beautiful'. 'Beautiful' in the sense that someone else (even one person) has looked at this piece of art and seen something beyond the canvas.
Inspiration in a world of blankness.
Fire in a world of cold.
Truly incredible and very poetic. ~freespot Loves the Deviation.
ps: I can't believe you did this all in PS. Nice.

well, thank you for the comment in my forum thread. this in a way kind of came back n bit you in the arse for getting a DD
i particularly like the grass in this peice, the colour combination of the green and yellow have been skillfully applied.
the people and the canvoses both being blank bring another dimension into the work, people bring into art their own values and ideals and art can be in the eye or it can be interprited in. either way, it is still constitutes as art.

ellemenno [2002-04-23 12:43:35 +0000 UTC]
Nice work! I love it. It actually says a lot about people and bandwagons and such. Actually, there's a lot of symbolism (intentional?) that could be pulled out of this.
-The canvases against the scenery: All the world's a canvas.
-The people looking at the blank canvases: Some people follow by nature.
-The man with the flower: Good art allows a person to take something from it.
There's probably much more there, but I'm running late for work now. Excellent job, as usual.

reminds me a lot of the short animation i saw a long time back called "bliss" ..which is great, cause i loved it... but the concept seems fairly the same, and this is a wonderful piece with a great power behind it. technically, it's superb, your quality never ceases to satisfy ( me, at least )
awesome work.
