This one isn't really grabbing me as much. HOWEVER, I am VERY curious to know whether you did the big nosed, sleeping face in the lower right side on purpose, or subconsciously. I find myself drawn to that area immediately and am quite interested in it's creation.

heartMelinda In reply to Phoenixartstudio [2011-04-03 03:40:20 +0000 UTC]

I see it. When you pointed it out I saw the dark spot about the blue as the eye not the blue line.

I think as artists sometimes we are so into our work that we can only see it as what we meant it to be. It is the viewer who comes it has has the opportunity to put a different perspective on a piece of artwork.

Phoenixartstudio In reply to heartMelinda [2011-04-03 12:12:49 +0000 UTC]

It is very true, but that's what makes it so much fun to be an observer instead of the artist sometimes!

Phoenixartstudio In reply to Carnegriff [2011-03-31 23:03:28 +0000 UTC]

Ok. look in the lower right area of the piece in the foliage. There is a gnome/goblin type face with a large nose and his eyes closed. I see it with such ease it astounds me that it wasn't put there on purpose. LOL. Either way, I love it when things like that show up in artwork accidentally.

I couldn't figure out how to send you the photo with the face circled, so I did a quick blog post about you. LOL.

If this isn't too much of an asshole question, why "New Light"? I'm curious about your titles, they're very interesting. Usually I can see them very clearly.
