Oh, God.
Oh, wow.
This is one of those pieces that honestly deserves the DD and fame it received. It's amazing.
The more I look at it, the more I see. My eyes are repeatedly thrilled, drinking it all in and never getting tired or having any reason to stop. There is always more.

LOVE this.

Thank you so much!
I am a fan of the kind of 'clutter' that makes you see new stuff every time. Almost like you can attribute your thoughts to what you are seeing at the time - when you return, you are different, the piece is different.

I'm the same way.

I always like spotting symbols or 'characters' in your work that are recurring. It makes me feel like I'm reading a really bizarre story.

zyphryus In reply to Cacodaemonia [2009-03-04 06:31:55 +0000 UTC]

HAhaha!!! Awesome
I love that. Very true!! And I do have some reoccurring things - its like elements in a dream.

Cacodaemonia In reply to zyphryus [2009-03-04 16:28:57 +0000 UTC]

I think recurring imagery is really neat. That's a good description - like in a dream. I have a lot of recurring dreams, though I used to have more when I was younger. Makes you wonder what it is about certain images that makes your brain latch onto them...

zyphryus In reply to Cacodaemonia [2009-03-04 21:54:28 +0000 UTC]

its crazy what your brain will latch onto as well.
Certain landscapes in my dreams, items... etc. Things that will stand brighter in your memory when you wake up.
I try to write my dreams when I can - the more I do it, the easier it is to do it.

Cacodaemonia In reply to zyphryus [2009-03-05 01:05:30 +0000 UTC]

LOL, I wish I were coherent enough in the mornings to write down my dreams. XD It's cool that you use your dreams for art inspiration, too.

zyphryus In reply to Cacodaemonia [2009-03-05 02:50:54 +0000 UTC]

its best done if you can be coherent enough to just write a few words. just key points that you can come back to later when you wake up -
even if you have totally forgotten the dream, looking at those words will more than likely trigger your memory.
its a nice remembering technique.

my all time fave quote from a very early art teacher.

I love clutter + hidden things at times.
