Artist's Comments

Another Fable concentration #9

Basically, the Peacock saw the Nightengale and started whining about how he was a laughingstock when he sang (despite the Nightengale's lack of physical beauty). Juno said to him that each of nature's creatures was endowed with their own gift and surely if his wish for a better voice was granted, he would find another reason to complain.

I like this one a lot too. Teacher didn't quite as much.

[Edit]

The goal for me was simplicity, for you who wish to understand why it is the way it is. Also, know that I am only really a beginning painter and this series was a lot of practice work for me. I would suggest looking at the others in the series. They stick out.

It's acrylics on canvas board, 8 x 11"

I love you guys for having a look at this.

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-03-16

The Peacock and Juno by ~flyingpenguin has a curiously clay-like quality to this viewer's eyes. You probably won't have to read the description to see the parable in this piece. (Suggested by ~adimus and Featured by `oedalis)

My favorite part is how the white fades to color from the Nightengale.

And in the dawning of a new personal era, one loses themself within the torrent of an emotional battle to stride foreward with perserverance and such a force that those who seek to dissuade them know to not interfere lest they be cast aside from the path.

I've never seen anyone do a dark rainbow believably.

I love the written part added to this one. I kinda want this to be in more places. I'm not sure where I'm thinking.

They're both really beautifully done.

Long venerated by the Christian Church, Adimus was removed from the roll of angels eligible for honor by the faithful in 745.. declared ineligible by a Council of Rome for lack of evidence for his existence and works.

I got the message right away, but I think the simplicity of the writing makes it stick out and detract from the composition. Also Nightengale's anatomy could be improved, but otherwise it's really pretty.
