Okay-- first off please read this description!
This is a very different kind of work for me. I used many different mediums to achieve the end result and confused even myself in the process  I started out with a photo of myself and printed it out. I painted over the photo (watercolors) and then scanned it again. I painted on it again using a paint program and then scanned some other pictures of mine and did the same to those (water color pencils). I printed out stock work by `dholms and watered them and then scanned them. And I scanned some dirt, torn paper, and bugs, and hair -bits of this bits of that. I took all of these things and compiled them in PS and added some brush accents and a frame.I couldnt decide whether I liked it or not. One minute I hated it and the next minute I couldnt stop staring at it. Definitely a love-hate relationship with this one heh. I tried a lot of new things here that I had never done before- highly inspired by my dear friend `dholmss incredible painting skills. It may not stay up-- I will have to see  It feels good to try new things. I am working on a new photowork that will most likely please many of my horror fans-- going back to my old scary stuffs with the next one  But this was a leap-- one that I am glad I took and I hope you are too!Thanks for listening to me ramble and now I will credit where credit is due~ --stock from `dholms submitted at the ever amazing #resurgere --brush from [link] --a photo from [link] |

 reports, 1d 7h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

You know, guh. I'm so into mixed-medium right now. And this is definetely more than inspiring.
Love how everything merges so fluently, how everything is entwined.
Your face floating in the bark of a tree, or rather, to me, absorbed in the essence of Autumn. Drifting.
I can't stop staring at the gorgeous, subtle splatters on your skin. A beautiful effect, kind of giving you freckles, as well as aging the piece.
And ohmygod the hair. Sprouting out of the crack and ending in the tail of the dragonfly.
The gleam in your eye, how it peeks and stands out from the strands of hair.
Truly captivating. Something I can drown in and drink in.
It arouses a deeprooted passion I have for Autumn, and what it signifies.
I know it isn't about Autumn, but what it embodies (for me) - love, loss, melodic fluttering of scent; it flows in here.
Gorgeous.
