Find my illustration services on Fiverr: www.fiverr.com/fabiosanna
A man sitting on the edge of the world sees a swallow flying in the sky. The whole scene is a metaphore of the will to cross a border to reach other places, communicate with other people and live other experiences.
Enjoy and give me feedback please, it was a one week work.
photoshop (with tablet), no photo reference.

I like the idea of the waterfall flowing right off the edge of the earth, but it seems to just end - like it got cut off in a straight line, instead of it just disappearing into atmosphere. Nice job though, especially with no references!

thanks, I had a lot of sketching for this work, and tests..it's my fourth I think with my tablet, I usually used traditional painting and not this style at all

Well many props, since I certainly could never free-hand something and have it turn out even half-way realistic.

Nice composition. I bet you like Salvador Dali! That is what it reminds me of. That looks like it took a long time!!! Lots of detail! I like the use of color too.

,,,h, let's say I've seen him, I prefer Magritte, but I'm not really enthusiast of these kind of painting lol..this was my first try on this style
oh yeah, it took 7 days, but the colours are a bit shiny, cos my monitor was old..just changed it with a new LCD YAHOOOO!!!
Now I'm on another one, I'm testing new lights technique on this, I hope it will come out as I imagined in my mind, I never use reference for that reason.

awesome but, the guy seems to be a bit still, and that bird in comparison to him would be giant, since at that vantage point, they seem about the same distance. from the viewer. Also it seems like the first background tree should be a bit taller than that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you're right abour the bird..it is giant, it's a surrealistic painting, so I'm happy finally someone noticed that thing
About the man, yes, he is in a weird postion I know, I wanted him to be in a kind of frozen sit, but maybe I exagerated on the hands position. About the tree, I don't know, I drew some prospective lines and they seems fine, but at the end, the tree was indeed a bit too small...
Thanks for the thoughtful comment! I really appreciated it!
I'm doing another one now, I just started eo paint with tablet and it's a lot of fun.

too uncomfortable :/

thanks for the pose tip, you're right! The position is really unconfortable...well as you could see I had no references at all
Thanks for the thoughtful comment!

Wow, i like this one ^^ I have had a dream like this.. I was skiing with my friends from school, and when we reach the rock,that we were going, i looked down from there, and i saw just white .. air.. or something.. It was quiet beautifull, but sceary becouse i was a little child then.. Well well, i like this one ^^ Good job! I like those colours, so bright, but not too bright.
