So...I wasn't going to upload this because I felt it was so shoddy, but I was encouraged by classmates that liked the piece, so I'm putting it up here to see if it finds a home online :)
This was this week's response to an in class assignment with the theme of invasion. Again, I went all "Imasenior" and found a tangent to go sit in.
I don't want to go into the content too much on this one (I may elaborate on my blog). I know it's kind of a bleak piece...at least it is to me...but I wanted to talk about "bleak" a little (it's winter).
For now, I'll leave it as an exercise in ambiguity and hope that y'all like it!

more chatter up on my blog soon:

I love how the eyes are mirroring the cloak the man is wearing in color. Warm and a lot of cold.

Interesting! It has a kind of sinister feeling... :D
:iconcrownjewel:
Oh! I like this quite a bit!

I like the shapes it makes as a thumbnail. It reminds me of The Fountain, but the dab of yellow brings the viewer some hope.

Ugh. The Fountain.
:iconarabbey:
I think it is fantastic. It makes me think of what the original druids who built it must have thought about Stonehenge.

This reminds me in a peculiar way of Ursula le Guin's 'Tombs of Atuan.' The yellow is just ... perfect. And the stone faces. :D

I like this one a lot. The stones remind me of the Ents from LotR. I like this very much, actually. Kudos, man.

What can you say about a society that says that God is dead and Elvis is alive?
:iconeicebleu:
Wow... That's got power in it dude.
:iconpatentrose:
There is an incredible, ancient ambience to this piece that is simply beautiful. It feels vast and powerful. I don't get "bleak" so much as "overpowering".
