wow. i have browsed some of your gallery and i think that all of your work is tip-top. you must be involved in an art related career, or at least in art school i would hope. you seemingly have an amazing eye for form, color, and above all - content.
the pose is beautifully bleak, i love what you have chosen to include and remove from the full figure as i imagine how the origin of the maniped figure had begun.
it would be of no surprise to me if you were fond of dali's work (i am taking a trip to see an exhibition of his at the end of this month in philly, weeeeeee!). this work reminds me of his 'anthropomorphic cabinet' the way that this figure is being held together by a.i. products, the subtle reference to femininity with the stitching on the leg, the obscuring/abstraction of the figure, and the contrast of the soft/welcoming curving and hard sharp edged qualities throughout the form.
before i bore you, i just want to add that from what i have seen so far on da (i am quite new to it as well as digital art) your work has been irrefutably the most profound and vivid work that i have come across.
keep it up! i hope that you are loving life.

oh wow.. such words.. im not knowing how to accept very well.. forgotten all english at the moment

thank you so much.. i definately think there is much better work here than this, but i really do appreciate the time youve taken to actually breathe in my work dali has definately been much of an influence.. i do prefer much of max ernst and yves tanguy when it comes to surrealism, and the wayne barlowe and giger style.. im studying graphic design new media at college at the moment.. so yea i guess im in the art world thank you so much once again!

This shows a careful hand and a trained eye.
What I like most here is the ambiguity.
We know it is humanoid in form but at which point does the mech. take over and the organic subside?

This issue is closer to actuality than we like to consider I think.
Right up my alley.

Wow, i'm impressed I came across your stock library (thru reference of a derivative work) and then came across your main account. Definately impressed Such talent and beauty are a rare combination
I can definately see the Geiger influence, interesting how this is derived from the same stock image that let me to you
Keep up the good work, and good luck with your college training.

so showwy for the late reply but i havent been back to this account in ages in fear of submitting something thats not finished!

anywaysh, much thanks for the sweetest words a woman can hear, they mean more then you think!

geiger has been a tremendous influence, but i try not to follow his style, the next few peices coming up are going to be tearing away from it, bit of experimentation if you will!

once again, much thanks for the comment! cheers hun!

The remainder of me mutates itself quickly into the surrounding world i long fought against , but yet, is quickly taking me away from me. The energy in all its hues and tones of living/life are washed into flows of void colors. The pieces i have tried to rebuild have have fallen apart for the final time and i make no effort to patch them.

The remnants of me have become lost, fused to the underworld i now call "here" ...i am whole once more...
reborn, yet dead.


awesome pic miss.
