Description There's more detail in this than you might imagine. Stuff you'll only see in the print .

I dedicate this to all those who have to live with terrible memories of the past (ironically it comes just after the Beslan Tragedy in Russia). The piece shows that sometimes these memories creep up on you when you think you're free. And you can just get lost in them from time to time. The person walking the dog is in one of these reflective moods, perhaps because of the barren scenery. Strange formations appear around her as the memories slowly take over her mind.

Enjoy.

Og.

What can I say? It's a beautiful rendering!

As for improvements, I dont think I have any suggestions, maybe a faint moon on the upper parts of the image?

The text at the bottom reeeallly bugs me, it just looks very haunting, gothic, scary, while the rest of the image makes me think of the green of nature, growing things, peace... warmth.

They really contrast and it really bugs me. Maybe I'm getting a different feel from the picture that you did.

But the picture itself is really lovely! I like it a lot!

Thanks - well it's always good to have different interpretations... but basically what I got out of it is "spooky" (hence the eyes) so that's why the text is thus.

Thanks for your comment ^_^

Gods, I know what that feels like- just some landscape with no boundaries that can creep up and surround you when you don't expect or don't want it to.

Amazing piece, though. It's even better on full-veiw. Just brilliant.

This is just amazing. I can't get over the green [woohoo Green!] I love everything about this. The render, the textures, the colours, the brightness. Everything merges well together and it's an inspiring piece, I must say. A beautiful dedication, to say the very least.
