thanks i will definitely look into that, right now i'm reading the cosmic landscape, have you ever read Ishmael by Daniel Quinn? It's very interesting, has an un-biased point of view on the consciousness of humans now and those that lived long ago. By the way did you see the second picture i just edited in to my first post?

Re: WAKE UP 2012

How to hell did you get the blue colours happening? Was there some kind of filter on the lens? You got a black light and glow paint? Did you alter the photo's afterwards?

I'm freaked out. Nice work.

Re: WAKE UP 2012

2012 is very possible scientifically, not necessarily religiously. It upsets me when people take 2012 as a sort of religious prophecy. On Dec 21/23 (forgot which date, but you get the jist), our solar system will be moving into the southern hemisphere of our galaxy. On these dates, our solar system will be perfectly aligned with the "equator" or center of the galaxy. Coincidentally, many planets are expected to be aligned and the Sun is epected to have the greatest magnetic pull in history.

a couple results include:
1.) The reverse of Earth's magnetic fields - resulting in the destruction of all electronic technology.
2.) The earths magnetic field will be stripped away by the sun = destruction of all life on earth.

and other unknown possibilities.

And if 2012 doesnt happen, 2032 = a collision with an asteroid.

Re: WAKE UP 2012

Don't get me wrong with trying to make this into a religious prophecy, and get all heretic about it....... I am not a religious person at all, i look at this 2012 through a scientific point of view that our mere extinction is surprisingly likely to happen, or some sort of huge event that could change the human consciousness.

Re: WAKE UP 2012

so, i hate to be the dick that shits on everyone's parade, but i really don't find these photos very impressive or interesting. It's just photoshop. yeah, sure, it's more than i could ever do with that program, but still. What WOULD be impressive is if he could achieve colors so vivid without digital manipulation.

Ok, this is a very interesting point.
You're coming at this from a very technical perspective rather than aesthetic.
In Art, what is more valuable?
Sweat, or end-results?
This is a philosophical question that has no real answer in my opinion, and if there's any semblance of an answer, it lies in both.
If it's sweat you're looking for value in, then you should really enjoy dot paintings, or chainsaw carvings :)
If it's end results, then these digital manipulations hold quite a high value.
In either case of what you're looking for, just understand that it's always a balance.
Just because something takes two seconds to make dude, doesn't mean it's worth jack shit.
Cuz you and Andy Warhol and the US Mint are at odds :)

Andy Warhos was minimalist and simplistic, sure, but he was INNOVATIVE. It's not that his ideas were completely original, i'm sure people had done it before, but generally speaking he was the man who brought the style into the spotlight. Meticulous art and minimalist art both have their good and bad qualities, but their aesthetic value lies in creativity (once again, generally speaking). Technique can be learned, creativity can't. It's not that i'm calling this work uninspired, it simply does nothing for me. I have seen hundreds upon hundres of photoshopped eyes. It has lost its aesthetic appeal, it's initial charm.

Re: WAKE UP 2012

okay have you even looked at any of my other pieces? Honestly I dont know why anyone has to be negative and arguing, its rediculous, so what if my work does nothing for you.....it does for me and lots of other people. I'm sorry it does nothing for you, then just keep on looking for something that does and please leave my thread.

EDIT: When i was typing this it didn't really come out how i wanted to say it, what i was implying was to say "If you can't just like crypto said be a little more constructive with your critique, than just slamming my artwork.

Actually no, i had not until about 8 seconds ago. Kudos on overlooked occurences, though.

Is that really a claim you can make?
you cannot begin to comprehend how much time i spend on the internet (i have no life) but anywho, I will politely excuse myself from the thread at MayorofNecropolis' bequest.

I'm probably just bitter 'cause no one looks at MY art! lawl.
and on that note

adieu, adieu

Dude, it's free speech FFS. (Well, technically different here at TDN, but you get what I mean).....He can be here, just as much as the next guy.
Sure, he's a detractor of your work.
I simply posed that he should better qualify his critiques, that's all :)

Well, post your art links now that you mentioned it, slapnutz, so we can all see :)
Anyway, I understand what you mean about reoccurring memes.
How many eyes have I seen? Quite a few.
They are compelling subjects.

Anyway, post your links and have fun.

No one is going to "trash" anything.

Your work is very good, I especially like the detail on the trees.
You do have a good foundation in the technical, and it clearly shows on the ink.

The long exposure stuff in streams I've seen before, if I may needlessly jab back :).
Thank you for sharing, I enjoyed your stuff.
