Description

This was my entry for Renderosity Magazine, Issue 7 cover contest. Though it didn't win, I am still very pleased that it was thought worthy of an honorable mention. The following was the writeup that was posted with the submission. Comments are always appreciated. The artist... must possess the soul of a warrior, to be able to face that frightful terror, that is a blank screen or canvas. To be brave and strong enough to enter that strange abode that is the subconscious mind. A place that lesser mortals fear to explore, believing they would find there, only a maddening chaos, that they would not be able to understand, let alone know how to even begin to express. But the artists, in their endless pursuit of mastering their skills, go ever deeper into that domain, and wrestle away a recognizable harmony and sense of beauty, that enriches not just their self, but all that see.
