Description EDIT: stuff added in the background and the colour levels are now correct



Good day

I approached this piece as a sci-fi piece,
although they are just ordinairy nettle (jelly) fish

This piece is dedicated to 'Baka'

Painted with Wacom Graphire 4 and PSCS3

This will get printed on several media

PLEASE view fullsize thanks!

Comments and crits are always welcome

Jellyfish! And they look gorgeous! With that lighting it looks as if they were glowing... oh I'd love to see that scene in real (but I'm afraid of diving in the depths, so I don't think I ever will ^^)
And I'd love to have a print of this.

This is so Chthulhu Mythos... (H.P.Lovecraft's idea)... I can almost see it in the dark... Oh, and the water is perfect, by the way.. Probably the only underwater painting I know that has truly been able to convey the atmosphere of the depths.

wicked! It is cool how actual nature can seem other worldly. I am sure baka will be very pleased with this...he seems to reject my fluffy bunnies.

Jellies really are something out of science fiction. They are so strange. Great job portraying the colors man. They look like the real thing.

Daniel-Ragoon [2008-12-04 22:46:30 +0000 UTC]

Thats look great, even if jelly fishs aren't my favorite animals. Are they in general animals? or plants,...?

Very nice as always dude, good subtle colour choices. I like the muted backdrop, definitely brings attention to the Jelly . . . .

Beautiful as usual, even though with your skill, I really expect something more detailed .

However, I'm a fan of jellies too ->

Thanks Dan for your constructive crit and fav.
Well, I tried to make some detailed jellyfish, although there is not very much stuff to be detailed about

Perhaps the bigger image I've uploaded provides a clearer look

Thanks again!

Yay, jellyfish! Don't see too many arts of those.

This is really a beautiful, haunting piece. Wonderful work on the ethereal underwater feel, and the luminosity of the jellyfish.

I do love me some jelly fish <3
don't care how dangerous they can be,
they're absolutely beautiful creatures c:

I always love how they remind me of
open parachutes X3 *fav*

wallace In reply to Heilos [2008-12-03 21:50:52 +0000 UTC]

Yes agree

although I have read somewhere the animal with the most potent venom is the kubus jellyfish, not much longer than 2 centimeters!
