Good work! Simple ideas work better, as it seems looking at this picture. The style reminds me many other artists, though you have a quite strange feeling emanating from this image, that´s very positive and priceless.

Cheers.

Thank you - I'm curious to hear who it reminds you of. this piece actually started the entire series, ironically the first sign in the cycle, and have prompted me to start thinking about a tarot series. But I appreciate your feedback, and am very glad you enjoy the piece.

Greetings. First of all, it´s a pleasure for me to admire good artists work.

When i said it reminds many artists was regarding the kind of aesthetics, dark or obscure mood, inspiring a bit of chivers while looking at the details. The piece itself speaks for the creator, you. Of course if you had assumed some influences or inspiration maybe i hadn´t called for it (because i would probably nont know such artist´s work).

From a distant view, i could see some H.R. Giger here, some textures, and it´s a remarkable inspiration to recall such genius with a slight different style.

Good work for the rest of the series, this one was well done!

Cheers!

Thank you! I'm just always curious to see what others see in my work, espcially those who take time to "dig" a little mentally and perceptually into the piece. That was the source of my question... sono worries, and glad you enjoyed it! And putting a refernce to Giger in a comment about my work is really cool by me. I appreciate that as well.

Photoshop airbrushing, some pen and ink, and that's about it.
