Artist's Comments

Neptune, sort of. I had no idea where this was going, but thanks to some steering from my Ustream audience--who were insistent on tentacles, mermen, and things on fire--here's the result.

I painted this from beginning to end, live, on Ustream. You can watch the progress, though it's pretty long.

Holy crap, :) Wow! Thanks so much for the DD (^archanN and `duhcoolies). Thank you to everybody who has favorited this or commented on it, too. I can't possibly thank each of you individually, but I do read all your comments and appreciate them.

Neptune by *Mercuralis - The intricate details, the lighting and everything about this gives it a surreal look and feel. Awesome work. (Suggested by `duhcoolies and Featured by ^archanN)
