Description
"This is the slowest dance
The dance of a thousand years
The dance of the frozen statues
Clinging together in tears
This is the darkest fight
The fight of a thousand years
The pounding of blood
Through our veins
In our veins, in our eyes
The circles of fear
"
Tristania: Equilibrium
Okay finally something new from me.
Once again this belongs to the category "testing, testing, experimenting, nothing special to see here, really".
In my eyes this is the long gone sequel for Mourn .
PLEASE FULL VIEW - looks totally awful in preview

Minusta tää on kaunis! Eri tekniikat sopii hyvin yhteen - lisää tuntua siitä että ollaan jossain toisessa maailmassa.

Actually, I think there's a lot to be seen in this one: the sky looks great, wonderful colours, and i like the effect of "painting" it has. It's very interesting how the buildings are distorted, like it's a sickening vision... exactly the feel of the song! And they are very well blended with the surroundings, only that they have a different texture, I mean, the look like they're ... drawn. But this only adds to the awkward feeling of this picture. Great job!
Equilibrium is one of my favourite songs

Well this looks like a painting! I love how sleek the water looks and the earthy colours. Your style is one of a kind..

Tämä on hieno ja jotenkin niin erilaista Viikaa, vaikka siinä on sitä samaa arvoituksellista näkyä kuin sinussa ja taiteessasi aina on ollut. Siksipä KIIIIITOS.

J love this pic!
If I hadn't seen what section it's in I could've sworn it's watercolour over ink... The sky gives a kinda watercolourish look and the building looks as if it had ink in it's edges (how an earth did you get that kind of effect in a photograph?)
Also love the color scheme and the distortion in the buildings.

Viika In reply to smuli [2005-09-01 21:55:50 +0000 UTC]
Well this manipp includes quite much painting, most of the watercolourish effects are painted with low opacity above the manipulated buildings and textures.
Thank you for this wonderful comment!

What do you mean this isn't something special?! I have been staring at this since you submitted it not knowing what to say because it has something different and is begging to be talked about. Whispered about in a corner somewhere! I'm dramatic sometimes
It is a dying thing losing shape losing form descending into the abyss where we all go after while. Your work has this theme, which I always love, the going back, the leaving, the moon! I love the moon, sigh, and I dig this very much. That it is losing form and sinking with the moon above watching, rocks.
This is all.

that s goodness, cooked in your style.
amazing digital painting skills you've got.
that s interesting how you used a macrophoto of an onion to create a new texture

Viika In reply to lividwist [2005-08-30 15:33:55 +0000 UTC]
Thank you!
Yeah I used that onion picture in this Remorse picture and in the Scythemaker's Limbo
I never thought I would use it, but it turned out to be a very useful and versatile texture

Kiinnostava työ. Pidän tavasta jolla vääntynyt rakennus jatkuu pyörteisiin pilviin. Värit luovat haalistuneen, jotenkin "vanhan" tunteen.
Kyllä tässä sinun kädenjälkesi tunnistaa vaikka se onkin aika erilainen kuin edelliset

LOVE IT.. daliesque in the whole 'melting' theme, also seems too have that really haunting feel to it thats so prominant in dali surrealism (i dont know many other examples of surrealist artwork, having had no formal education in art (cept photography)).
Can I ask how it was crafted? Is it all free drawn? half digital? full digi? either way honey, that is a beautiful piece of art. well done!

Thank you for commenting
Some parts of the picture are photomanipulated and then used either directly or as reference for digital painting.
Some parts are full painted in Photoshop and textures are from my own stock. I used for example a macro shot of an onion!

I turned my attention on this piece by accident - in fact, it's rather odd I didn't notice it before, 'cause it has a great atmosphere, and I'm very fond of subjects including the Moon... I'm happy you mismatched it with the other one, so I had the chance to notice it - and now it's the right time to it!

Ohh damn I'm sorry for the mistake.
I don't know where my head was yesterday, the day was filled with all types of errors and mistakes.
I even threw away the meal I had just recently cooked and started eating yesterdays leftovers which were meant to be thrown away instead...
Thanks for the comments and the , means A WORLD to me. Thank you thank you thank you!
You are so kind and supportive

ha ha, I know what you mean, sometimes it happens to me too... I mean, doing things all the opposite they are meant to be done, like throwing away just made coffee, or washing again a t-shirt I just pulled off from the drying rope... maybe you're in love????
anyway, I'm so happy for this oddity with favs, 'cause I had the chance to look closer at 'remorse?', and it really deserved it!
