milleniumsentry [2006-11-15 23:48:25 +0000 UTC]

brilliant...

in darkness we learn to seek the light,
in all wrongs we find the right,
shadows cast on streams of tears,
moments pass to feed our fears,
we light the fire inside with,
desire, rage and love,
seek deaths hand
to know it's kiss
and slowly
rise
above.

I don't know what else to say other than that I love this piece, like a lot of your others, and hope you continue to make more like it. The emotion is so raw it's unmeasurable. Fantastically sad and lonely.. it almost rips you in two.

It mirrors Bellmer's doll series from the thirties very closely, in particular the one with legs coming out of the body from both sides.

This must be one of the strangest, yet compeling piece I've seen in a while.
When I first saw the thumb in the forum, I didn't think much of it. Well, it's a good thing I looked at the full view because I love this piece.

You're correct: The full view is way better than the thumb in this case. Thanks .

...and quite interesting, no doubt. Just some (minor) crits a-I see a bit too much contrast on the whites (burned) of the body and not enough on the shadows –that makes it a little unbalanced, and b-the upper β€œtongue” of the fire has too much transparency so it looks β€˜added’… but as I said, just minor stuff and personal opinion. Terrific creative work as usual.

Anytime –indeed just minor stuff that don’t diminish the creative and tech value of the piece.

It’s now common opinion that DA is sort of decaying –maybe it is. But as long as I am able to view, enjoy, comment, critique pieces like this one I think DA’s health is just fine.

Looks good, I'd only fix some light issues, you should use the fire as a light source and simply pull lines from the center of it to see where shadows should go and then you'll see that the shadow on the ceiling part would go more into the upper right corner. Also how the light is being caught by the lower feet should be slightly different, and the fire would also lit the surrounding frame/wall. I know I'm nitpicking but you asked for it . I'm also not sure about the coloring/saturation of the fire, it kinda distracts, my eyes don't know where to look first, if it should be the body or the fire, this might be a choice yours side to have focal points like that, so it just depends what your intentions are, I did stuff like that on purpose as well. Last thing, I'd get rid of that tattooish thing and just leave the leg as it is, perhaps you wanted to break the big surface of the leg but I think it's distracting in a way, you could perhaps make it more subtle.
I'm picking on details right now, overall the piece looks good and that's most important; it looks like a whole which is a really good job. I think you're improving quite well. Thumbs up for the masking as well, very clean job.

Also how the light is being caught by the lower feet should be slightly different, and the fire would also lit the surrounding frame/wall.

Light and shadows are my weakest points, I guess... the idea with the lines is excellent, that tip alone would be worth having asked you for critique. In which way do you think that the light would be visible on the wall? Making some orange glow or something like that?

I'm also not sure about the coloring/saturation of the fire, it kinda distracts, my eyes don't know where to look first, if it should be the body or the fire, this might be a choice yours side to have focal points like that, so it just depends what your intentions are, I did stuff like that on purpose as well.

Aahh... yes. Glad to see that it works . It was totally intentional to add the fire and make it (with colour) strong enough to form a second focal point.

Last thing, I'd get rid of that tattooish thing and just leave the leg as it is, perhaps you wanted to break the big surface of the leg but I think it's distracting in a way, you could perhaps make it more subtle.

I thought that, too, but some of my friends assured me that the version with the tattoo would work better... I think it's a bit easier to understand my concept here with that symbol... but maybe you're correct and I should rather listen to myself than the audience...

Anyway: Thank you VERY MUCH for that in-depth critique und excellent analysis... this was somehow what I expected when asking you for it.
