Darkness and Detail


Shadow fan... 

I love the attention to detail here. Especially with the light coming through. You can pick up lots of details surrounding the woman's face even though she's in darkness - the lighting is well balanced to pick out specific elements. Beautiful.

The darkness was overwhelming. Even the animal s, accustomed to nature’s changing moods, seemed to fear the very source of these shadows.

Cuddles

In loving memory of one of the cutest cats... Warm and rested by the fire, Dark with aubern, her thick fur glowed. Her presense calm in quiet slumber Watching embers fade. Those she loved around her always, Laughing at her chatter. Small but large were her demands, Cute and inane banter. In the dark her green eyes glistened, Pierced into the soul.

Sleeping curled on daddy's lap, Resting with eyes closed No one would disturb her there, Just watched her dream and doze. Gone from the world to a better place Where there is no pain, Only happiness and joy, She waits to see you again. To Cuddles, the persian. May you forever play in fields and catch mice. xxx

This next project sees the town of Witch- Haven, the home of the paranormal plunged into a New and terrible darkness. Friends and enemies must band together to protect their own as years of unrest and war arise around the once sleepy little town... What are your resolutions? Do you even make them?
