Description To my dear friends Dani Athina and Anabela because their surreal and conceptual Artworks are very inspiring.


“On his very first day of existence, the just born Angel chose to join the forces of Darkness guihena.deviantart.com/art/New… , then, he was sent to Earth...

But, that wasn´t good days to begin on his dark assignment… because he had to be witness of how a good man was cruelly tortured and killed without having done anything to deserve it… the Angel just couldn’t understand it, that didn’t make any sense for him, because that kind of suffering should be for all those who deserve it, not for the innocent ones…

So, the Dark Angel, newly initiated, while dropping a tear from his eyes, took his horns with his hands and rips them out from the root, because he was repented of the choice taken… but, there was too late for him…”

This is not about Jesus of Nazareth himself, but about the way he died, because it was an absurd death… and a few more come to my mind: Socrates, Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, etc.

Sometimes Humanity acts in strange ways, mostly destroying what they don’t like or they don’t understand, like witch-hunting as example; or because of Political or Financial interests, like military and civilian wars, land invasions, drugs war… on all that and much more, there are many, many absurd deaths; we are killing each others, we are killing between brothers…

But, the most important death is nearby, we are in a nonsense race to killing Earth, and nobody really cares… so, do “Dark Angels” or the “Devil” himself need come to Earth to kill anything?, what for?, they don’t need to do that, because we're already doing that very well, they just need take a seat (with a big portion of popcorn) and delight their view…

Well, thanks Zenne, for your appreciation.

You'll see, the red color is "on purpose" as a conceptual thing, because supposedly he remained skinless since he was born... i made him like that in order to do something different than the usual "humanized" angels (because as you might know they are not human at all), but i got your point, one beautiful human body is more aesthetic than the red one.
Take care.

No, now I love it, the idea behind it makes you understand why! I really like that kind of ideas, because, indeed it's a stupid idea to give angels the same appearance as humans.

Ah, your words are wisdom!, now you got my point... haven't you seen the little story behind my red angel?, it's kind of sad but here it is:

The first part [link] , you already are watching the second part, and the third part [link]

Please tell me what you think of it whatever it is.

butterflowerfly In reply to Guihena [2012-11-13 18:03:25 +0000 UTC]

Well I understand your point, that it is wrong to kill those who try what is right in their eyes. It's nice that the angel saw what is wrong with the humanity, but it's sad that he'd already chosen the side wich is now in his opinion wrong. But the humanity can't help itself from this faulths, because we teach our children the way we used to live and how to act with these kind of things. I think faulths can't be erased from humanity. We are teached to do the wrong, always, in everything you do. And my conclusion is that this is what we're ment to do, because there can't be wrong things if there aren't any good things and so it is the other way round.
It's a beautiful story and very interesting, I really like those kinds of philosophy.
But this isn't going to hold me because you can't live happily if such ideas are are always chasing you.

Guihena In reply to butterflowerfly [2012-11-13 18:45:36 +0000 UTC]

You got the point beautifully right... the only difference between the "angels" and us, "suposedly" is that we do have "free will" and they don't, so, we can correct our lives if we are "falling" into the dark side...

Your conclusion is the best of all, we need to understand what's wrong on this world in order not to get caught on it, but to try to make it better.

Thanks Zenne.

Your work is really beautiful,and the way i see it,it is perfect technically,
i can't see something that i would do differently..
The position of the body,the red color,the wings,the dark background,the cross on the hill,
high above the Angel,the lightnings..They all fit perfectly and they are just as they should be..

As for the concept,what can i say..Your concepts are always so deep,so well explained,
the emotions they create are so deep,so shaking..
It is very difficult for me to put my thoughts in english,that's why my comments are so brief,
i wish i could use the language better,i'd love to be able to discuss with you my thoughts about God,Christ,humans,the meaning of life,of the suffering of Man,but i don't have the facility to do so..

All i can say is,that i always love to see your works,i'm always looking forward to see a new work from you,and i love reading your comments..My thoughts,my beliefs are so similar to yours,
i always feel that you speak the things that i would like to say and can't,cause of the language..

Please,don't stop creating and please create more..

My dear Athina, you heart has spoken, and in a very beautiful way...

The way you describe the picture is like if you were explaining one little story, and you flattered me...

This concept was made for sensitive people like you, and i like the way you perceive it... your english is good enough to make me feel your own feelings, and that really strengthens me.

It's an honor that you love my works, and yes, our thoughts and beliefs are very, very similar... what do you need to express yourself better on a foreing language?, just practice!, so, go ahead.

My activities don't leave much free time to create manips, but i'll do my best to create a few more (mostly is the lack of time to find adequate stock).
Your words make me very happy, please don't stop your beautiful comments...

Creative, moody and appealing to the mind. Another well constructed piece of artwork. Your write up continues to inspire as well…
You are absolutely right, we, the human beings of the whole globe are doing enough to fill up another and another sad gallery of grief. It seems like if we can not learn any lesson through centuries of pain and horror.

I feel highly flattered by the dedication, heartily appreciated! Thank you so, so much my dearest friend!!!

Thanks dear Anabela, i know that your mind is very perceptive, and i'm glad you think that way of my humble work.

I would like to think otherwise, but we both are right, it seems that our ignorance will lead this long age of pain and horror until its last consequences... or, will be the human being able to stop their own extinction?... but, what can i tell to you, if our thoughts are alike.
The dedication is from my heart.

Thanks dear Kam, indeed the scene is absolutely loneliness and sadness, plus frustration and anger, for all those things that aren't right, that's the central idea, and you got that idea so well.

Thanks for your kind comment, appreciate it.

Excellent piece that can be better appreciated in zoom.
The concept is strong and intense, the work gives us countless interpretations. I loved the contrast of red with the dark tone of the rest of the image.

Thank you for your dedication, know that it is an honor to me! Thank you very much, dear Gui!
