Here's 'Desert of My Loneliness' in wallpaper size .. I don't think it looks very good this way .. but anyway maybe someone wants to use it as wallpaper .. so here it is ..

Originally it's available in size 1280x960, but I decided not to show it in maximal size because of odd sharpness on some details ..

I also have to say something about creation of the piece and answer some questions I had after it became DTF ..

Many people thought it was painting .. Actually it is not, I used only photographic elements for it, but I wanted it to look like painting since first minutes I started it .. though I didn't use any special effects or technics to reach it .. I think it came out this way mostly because of the lighting and colors I used ..

I started this picture when I was at work .. don't know why I always want to create something with desert when I'm there .. maybe it's because there's a lot of photo-cliparts with deserts on computer there ..

At first I just wanted to create something with very small picture of sunset clouds that looked fake but quite interesting .. I decided to use as a ground beautiful picture of dunes .. it was BW, so I had to color it ..

Later I added all other elements .. the massive wave was the last and it gave the meaning to the piece .. I was under some emotional shock that time, so I gave it all to the picture ..

Usually I don't have possibility to take home PSD file of picture and finish it, that time fortunately I could record it on CD .. So at home I was thinking on finishing it, but I didn't have right mood and inspiration for it for a long time ..

At last I changed wallpaper on my desktop because usually changing atmosphere makes me want to create something .. I used very old wallpaper that consisted of my oldest pictures and it really gave me right mood finally ..

I wanted to add some person to the landscape .. first I thought about my Lost Angel because basically it belonged to my very old picture 'Angel in the Desert' and it was better for meaning, but I thought then there will be too many pictures with the same Angel (I had already used it in a few other pictures), so I decided to use some of my new photos ( that was photo from the same series as 'Born in Color - Dying in Light' [link] ) .. and also I decided to change sky because picture of it was very low quality .. I replaced it with two of my own sunset pictures blended with some gradients ..

Most difficult work was with the wave, because it looked completely out of picture by color and lighting .. I had to work a lot to make it look like the part of the landscape .. and still I don't like how it came out, but I really can't do anything else with it ..

Some people didn't like the perspective here .. I have to say that I wanted it to look this way .. The house is small because it is far away from the girl and if the wave is so massive to the house imagine how massive it must be to the girl ..

Also there are no footprints on the dune .. But why they must be there? Can you have a thought that she have not moved from this place for many years, so all the footprints that were there are under the sands now ..

I had written the text to the picture before I finished it .. I think all my life is in this work .. and I really didn't meant to make any success with it .. so it was a bit strange for me to see all those people commenting and adding it to favorites .. I felt like they were watching and commenting my soul and it was quite disturbing .. but I really appreciate that all the people liked it ..

Hope you'll like this version too

Desert of Loneliness - Fear of Life

Timeless fields of golden sands ..
Heated by the Sun, but cold in essence ..

Who was born in the darkness
will die in the light ..
Who was grown in the desert
would fear of the water?..

What was made of my soul?..
Was it a golden coin that had fallen
into the magic water that made me alive?..

And now this desert of loneliness takes away
last drops of this life from me ..

Soon I'll be heartless and cruel
like golden statue that has no soul ..

or will I still be able to love?...

and if the sea rushes onto the sands
will it make me alive again
or will I die in a moment? ...
