Expecto Patronum! Not really, but that's what I was reminded of as soon as I finished
. I wouldn't settle on a deer though, it'd probably be something more like a......Manion? LOL, I'd be screwed. If you don't understand that, here's this: simanion.deviantart.com/galler⦠Further cosmic meanderings in my "Intergalactic" series, and by series I mean there is currently one other
The idea is that they all have the same background and are set in space. The content is completely unplanned and the work only begins to emerge as I see things in the shapes being created and built up. A very organic process. When I don't get any good feelings from one I throw it away and start again until something emerges.I happened to see a vaguely mythological deer spirit in this one. It's actually a couple of months old, I just could not for the life of me get a good reproduction. But I just recently acquired a new scanner that's a massive improvement (on shit), so yay!
Hope you like it

Hey! It's all either acrylic or watercolour paint, with some small detailing done with white ink

Beautiful colors and well worked details... The details at the bottom create a very nice effect.
I also like the eye... if that's what the big white thing is supposed to be

It does look like a patronus; I thought it was a hummingbird at first

Thanks! It seems to me to be some kind of mixture between bird and deer.. I should work that idea out more clearly in another painting

This is such an awesome surreal painting. I like the details that went into this, especially the colors, of course.

Thanks very much! I think there is a whole world of these "Intergalacti Essences" to uncover

I love this, and the process behind it sounds really fun too. You've given a whole, unplanned shape a personality, and it almost glows off the background. Really great stuff.

Haha. Me too. I'd feed it clouds.
