Pretty freaking awesome. Nice to see you again Jared! You should pop in more often. And not that it really surprises me much but you have gotten REALLY freaking good man.
-
I should be able to, now that I'm working closer to home, its interesting that everyone is still posting!
PS. Nate, sorry about the falling out on the web design, i just got caught up in shit and lost track.

I can't honestly say I'm surprised. I'd be surprised if it sucked. It's absolutely stunning. I love the vibrant colors on the birds, the feathers are well-done. It's just overall appealing. You're a Photoshop master.

It's alright man. I'm impressed that you remember :) A busy guy like you making the big bucks, I understand.

Thanks!

There are a few conflicting symbolism here. Broken, by association, would remote us to ravens and not angelic white birds, as it does. Leathers would have to denote death, and be slightly more dramatic as well. Furthermore, and considering human reads images from top to bottom, left to right; I would have opted to have the white fading into black as opposed to what you have done. Same logic applies to the surrounding objects and so on. Right now, even though the pieces looks good, it has multiple meanings and multiple interpretations --mostly due to a lack of understanding how to visually portray the desired meaning. The only thing left would be that you should try and get rid of woman's vests that go past her hips. Basically, more blending.
None of the above relates to execution. You've always been good at execution in Photoshop. Your mishaps usually occur in the expression, meaning and sensibility of a certain piece.
Keep it up. Talk to you soon buddy.

Your interpretation of this piece, is close, but different than the meaning behind it. The title is broken dreams, but the meaning to me is the light "good" that happens when certain dreams are broken. Thus, the use of selective color, and the "light" grasping for control over the darkness. Over all good points are made by you.

the prints are in!
-
It's horizontally flipped?
-
no i used my web cam at work to take the pic, its just the way the camera flips stuff. Its printed the same as above.
-
Ah okok that makes sense. I didnt know it was a webcam pic; webcams usually flip the picture in some way.
The print looks really good though. It's nice to have artwork in a physical format. You can look at it and be like "Yeaaaaa. I made that."

If you want to buy one, it would be around 10-15 USD depending on shipping cost. As of right now I only have 1 left. I cant do single prints if needed.

I just got one of those "It's nice and impressive to see how far you've come" thoughts :)
-
I actually got a email this morning from a magazine out of the UK about publishing some of my works.

That's pretty cool though. You should be proud if you're not already :)
-
I'm not really, I mean I don't know how this all works with magazines. If it gets then I will be happy, but until then just hoping they publish my stuff.
