Description New watercolor that was painted for the cover of an up and coming book of prose, poetry, short stories by a good friend of mine. The book will be released in a little while and I will supply a link to more information and where to purchase it when the time comes. The book itself is titled "And The Sky Bled Red", hence the title of this painting.

I think the overall themes of this painting are fairly obvious, but there is a lot of hidden symbolism that I push everyone to look for. Comments are very appreciated... Enjoy!

FULL VIEW IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST!

What are the figures in front of the tree? Can't quite make out what they are doing.

Let's just say, it's an embrace of catastrophe. Thanks for looking.

Hella biblical boY! The little snake, the adam and eve representation. Spiritual third eyes. Its like hell is bleeding onto the garden of eden...everything is upside down...just like out lovely world right now. And that 'god' in the middle, shaking his head, wonderind why is he so blind to all of this. Nothing to hear, to cries to listen to, while this hell of a blood storm in coming to get us. The colors are so rich and just melting into one another, I love your water colors. ANother great piece of Zac-the-man work!

magnificent blend of colours o_o It's SO hard to blend well with watercolours without them mushing together and getting muddy. This is really excellent.

Obviously, being the large fan of MM that I am, there are some slight influences, but I try to keep it as original as I can. I'm not a fan of style-biting.

Thanks for the comment
