I can not properly phrase how much I adore this, from execution down to composition... and last but not least because I had a very similar idea and had no idea how to put it on paper (or screen) - but you did it. I lift my hat.

Thank you So much Victoria, so glad you liked it that much!!
I'd say, you should still put that idea down if you feel inspired, I would truly love to see that from your perspective. ^.^

It'd probably turn out to be one of my weird, messy, digital watercolor paintings well, we'll see! Can't imagine to top this tho

Hahah It would just be different, would be you, so we don't need to compare. Besides, weird and messy is cool, we have a lot on the other side here already.

Rowye In reply to TomN7 [2016-10-12 10:56:08 +0000 UTC]

xD Aye, I was trying to look for positioning symmetry between the heart and the hole, we'll just call it artistic license.
Thanks a lot!!

I love it, my friend! Finally i see absolutely great conceptual manipulation, created from your own resources! Originally, without analogies, with wonderful and very right lighting. Technically is very good, like idea -
i'm delighted with this association, but in sense of the use of the resources  - brilliantly!
Bravissimo Rodger!!!

Yay! Thank you so much Lilia!! So happy to read your comment
I wanted to do this for a long time, I have another idea on the works (but will have to wait a bit) as I really have wanted to use more of my photos for a while, make my art more mine!
Still need more practice to reach a level even close to what you do with the photos, but baby steps... getting a bit closer heehee. ^.^

Thanks again my friend!!

I love the comparison between all the realistic fine detail and the "heart" shape in the chest.

Rowye In reply to Crookedform [2016-10-12 10:33:54 +0000 UTC]

Aye, I did have an internal controversy with that, wasn't sure if to shape it like an idealized heart or not but in the end I thought I rather take some grief out of the image... hope I made the right choice.
Thanks a lot!!

cool work again! It's inspiring me to make one that is "all mine" again as well. I reall like how well you work with clouds! I find it often hard to blend them realistically with objects that are close by.

Rowye In reply to ErikShoemaker [2016-10-12 10:29:56 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much Erik!! Always take your compliments to my heart.
Heehee funny how we inspire each other over here, I started to work more with clouds cause of adoreluna 's works a bit, and some older ones of yours and IrKos which I keep in my top list still.
I was thinking about that the other day, it's been a while since I've seen you publish some art, looking forward to that!!

ErikShoemaker In reply to Rowye [2016-10-12 19:28:42 +0000 UTC]

I made one for desktopography, which I hope I can put out there soon... but beyond that nada. I just have too much work on my hands lately (finishing up my thesis, applying for jobs, CV stuff), which leaves me no inspiration or time for anything else. Appreciate it though

LoloAgain In reply to Rowye [2016-10-12 11:37:44 +0000 UTC]

I honestly learn the best from these animations. It doesn't show technical, its shows what your thought process is in putting all these seemingly random images into something cohesive. I'm interested in your brain
