Artist's Comments

It's about time I posted this.
My final project for Advanced 2D Computer Art: a 3-piece narration (tryptich). We could choose any story, myth, "plot", or make one up, as long as the 3 pieces were related somehow, or seemed to "flow" as a story. Me being a Greek mythology freak, I started thinking of myths I might be into. Then I remembered the Golden Hind. I started researching, and learned it could outrun any hunter, evade all arrows... So I had my "plot". Perfect, since I've gotten into deer.

The Golden Hind is a reindeer doe that Artemis, Greek Goddess of the hunt, tried to capture along with 4 other golden reindeer, to pull her chariot. It escaped, and no one was able to capture it.

I tried to make it seem like the reindeer might actually be made of gold. I was also somewhat mimicking the style of Nicholas Di Genova, the artist I was assigned to research. We were all supposed to look up an artist, and could use their style as influence for the triptych.

You may recognize the background to this. It's a deviation I uploaded previously, that I painted just for this purpose.

Yeah, I say it's about time you did. I was thinking about uploading mine, but I keep forgetting. I wasn't going to do all 3, though. That and the box project. We'll see, since I haven't been uploading lately.. You can prolly still get your stuff from Farber. She doesn't seem to throw stuff away. Got off topic, but this is mucho nice!!:D

Beyond the camera, I was invisible. When I lifted it up to my eye it was like I crawled into the lens, losing myself there, and everything else fell away.

Go for it and post yours. =B The box I'm not sure if I will, but since it's mostly my stuff, I might. We'll see. |D
Darn right I'll try to get my print-outs of this back. I like how it's big. I can't do a big print like that at home. |D
And thank you. =B
