So I'm not sure how many of you have seen this idea floating around, but I think it's a great one, and a good way for other artists to get their work seen by more people! I saw it on *mockinggale's page, who got it from =Nikkayla! Anyway, when you leave a comment on this journal, I'll pick three pieces from your gallery to feature, with reasons why I like it!

So get to commenting, and feel free to keep this trend running!


FEATURES:

=AmyyMc :



Well to start, the first one is just gorgeous, and honestly, a thought it was a manip before I clicked on it. The mood you set is great, and the idea is also really awesome. I love the second one, because I just love closeup shots in general, which are pretty unique too, since not many people do them. The lighting is nice, and it leaves you with a really peaceful atmosphere. I've personally always wanted to do one of these, but have been a little intimidated by seeing one area focused on my detailing XD. The last one is great, because that color change is fantastic! I love the composition, and you did a really good job of fitting an abnormal horse in a really realistic setting!

The first image blew me away. Normally, I don't really like pink (or pinkish) hues in images, but you really pulled this one off well! The paleness of the horse, and the quiet scene of snow and trees with that lighting is amazing. Everything is really calm and quiet, and that grounding is awesome! The second one is probably my favorite from your gallery, I just love the earthiness and the blue/green combo, paired with the striking pinto of that horse! I like how the horse also isn't completely centered, drawing the eyes first to the left slightly, then back over to the right. The last one is also really amazing. Once again, you bring this warmth and calmness to your image that really help sets the mood. The lighting is good as well, and I can see where certain rays of sun just manage to catch the horse's coat! Excellent job.

Your first image might just be my favorite out of your gallery. I'm in love with the purple/orange combo, and that horse just fits in so well! I think you pulled off what looks like a semi-complex character very well, and I love how the snake in there seems to be just casually hanging off the horse's shoulder. I also think those wings were a good choice, and I like how they give the image some dynamic flare! I'm also amazed by your second image! The sheer intensity of it, as well as that lighting is just awesome! I love the way you did his eyes and scars, and that lightning magic that he seems to be generating is awesome! Also, how did you make lightning from scratch?! That's just so cool! The last image here is different from the other two, but only in that the mood, despite the darkness on the left, seems to be fairly relaxed. I love a good daytime scene, but your inclusion of that darkness actually gave a really nice flare to the image.


=Nikkayla



Okay, well I've always seen your stuff around, and you've always been one of those huge inspirations to my art, so picking just three of your pieces was difficult! The first one is just so intense and so amazing. There's a real focus on those characters, and the story below it gives me goosebumps and breaks my heart! There is SO much emotion in that mare's eyes, and absolute ruthlessness in the stallion's. It's breathtaking. The second one is probably one of my favorite manips in your gallery, I love the composition and the colors. It's sets a really great mood and the whole feel of the image is just really awesome. Plus, that magic coming from her horn is just super cool. The final image really catches me with it's apparent simplicity. I've always felt that some of the hardest images are the ones we try to make look simple. This one is probably one of my all time favorites of any manip, just because it really does hold a good message, and there is almost nothing I love more than silhouetted horses! I could spend hours staring at it!

I really love the brightness of the first one, and I love the way you did the lighting. I also really like the gold and green colors, and that hair is just to die for! I think the second one is really beautiful to! You did an excellent job on the background blending, and that lightning in the sky makes an otherwise calm image a little bit darker! Your detailing on the horse is great, and I also really love the way you pulled off the lighting coming from that necklace on the horse! That eye is amazing too, and there's lots of emotion behind it! Your last piece is also one of my favs from your gallery. I like the darkness of it, but you still put some light in there, and it really brings out the character. I like that the horse is almost seeming to be facing the crow, and I still can't get over how good your hair painting skills are!


~Shade-of-the-Night



Well that first one is just amazing! That is obviously a really complex character, and you pulled it off spectacularly! I love the way you did the moss growing off of her, and all of those little baubles in her hair must have taken forever! I also love how, even with the background almost completely black, there is still a sense of peace, just from the horse alone. That second image is hands down my favorite in your gallery. The silent staring between the wolf and the bird hints at something either really tense or really curious. I really love the blue of the image, and how the wolf fits in really well, and the bird stands out. I also love how you kept the rocky foreground in, creating a really nice composition for the image. The last image here is a cool take on an idea I've seen done plenty of times before, but you pulled it off well! I like how the image is more ghostly and neutral rather than dark, and the plash of those red feathers on the horse really catch my attention! The whole image in general is really eerie, and I think you did a really great job setting up that mood.

The first image is easily one of my absolute favorites from your gallery. The style is so unique and definitely a change from what I'm used to seeing. I love the almost painterly/unpolished style of it, and ALL THAT HAIR! You really gave the mane and tail depth and fullness, and the composition and scene in general are lovely. The second image is right up their with the first on my list of favs. The concept and story is unique, and there's something about the peaceful acceptance of the horse's death and the hopefulness of the jellyfishes light that really captures me. I think the execution of such an idea could have been easily botched, but you did a superb job of bringing the image to life! The final image I chose because I think it was the point at which I began thinking of you more as an inspiration rather than just another artist that I watched. Not only did your take on the concept of lust blow me away, but everything about the image, even down to the smallest of details, really made me admire your work for it's constant beauty. I thought at the time that this image was your best, but you've only gotten better from their, and I love the way you incorporate so much emotion into your pieces.

~BlackHorseWords



I love the colors of the first image! I think the color of the horse matches well with the color of the background, and you did a really great job on the lighting too. Your grounding job is awesome as well, and I love the composition and movement of the horse! I may have been a bit biased choosing the second one, since it was for our art trade, but I can't get over it XD. I've never personally tried pixels, but it sure looks hard, and I think you did a great job! The last one is a favorite of mine as well! I think the composition and pose is really cool and unique, and definitely something not seen that often! I love the natural colors that you brought out in the image, and the movement is really great, as well as that wing blending!
