Artist's Comments

Project Resonance #15

"The last time she saw him --
standing, as always, on the precarious porch,
the wood distorting
more than she'd noticed before, he said
I'm not good at this
and switched the light on
and off because he liked to watch the moths
fly towards him

as if he were the moon."

~extracted from 'The Moon' by `imperfect

work in progress is also posted for anyone interested. :)

i mean the caption in the work in progress, not the deviation. ^^;
the captions are changed now.
copic is just one of the brand, you can try to find its equivalent by some other manufacturers: artwin, marvy, posca, zig, nouvel, maxon, etc.

How many flies buzzed round you innocent of your
grime, while you cursed the heavens of the rail-
road and your flower soul?

I'm not a visual artist. The most I draw lately are little piggies for my girlfriend, because she thinks they're cute and they make her laugh. I can't give you more than praise, but don't think it's mindless: I simply cannot criticise this. That doesn't mean I can't appreciate it, though. You don't have to be a writer to appreciate writing. The same goes here. ;)

Two things caught my eye immediately: the perspective and the (words have been escaping me lately, so I can't think of the proper term: ) pattern built into the front of the structure. The latter especially, it has a "wow" factor for me, and my eyes are drawn to it each time I look at the picture. It has a hypnotic quality when I look at each of the "strands". It looks like a cobweb. :)

As always, I really like your borders. The colours drained away roughly at the edges gives it a "real painting" feeling that I look for now.

Was this perspective difficult?
