I find this really beautiful, like a Renaissance painting... is that person disabled? In which case this could be a beautiful reflection on their humanity, maybe on our humanity...

It's mind-boggling to think about the connection between the STRONG photo and the title. The model.. definitely not comical. Strong, yes. A delightful exception among the boring typical dA models. The lighting I find weird; it's the stomach that seems to get most of the light.

Hmmmh... interesting. Know yourself meant know your place you mere humans in the old world. The meaning is so different now. Don't really know which one this represets more. But it sure is interesting

The envelope chosen for our soul is of no consequence to me, I see beauty in all things even with what may be considered creepy, weird, etc........, what really draws me to this image are the eyes.........Is it complete trust or complete unawareness that this person is feeling? The latter would really creep me out.
Otherwise

Popular or not, this is really amazing. The tones........the composition, but most of all just the subject itself.......gives me a really creapy feeling....almost like the movie Seven. Great work!

Hi and thanks so much for your support. I guess Taste is whats strange. I really like these new pieces of work, but they are far less popular than my endlessly boring landscapes. But I dont care, making these photos was alot of fun, and the satisfaction of finally making something new is far and above feeling popular.

wow. I don't know if its hilaroius, or just really weird... I like how the lighting puts shadows over her eyes and makes them look even more surreal and oblong.
great shot and manipulations! I think those textures looks better on the portraits you've taken recently than on anything else.
