With this piece, I wanted a real sense of scale. The theme is all about flight and trusting yourself. I wanted it to feel like a dream; the only way to find out if you can fly or not is to jump.

Time: Approx 5-6 hours
Tools: Photoshop CS3 & Wacom Intuos tablet

Critique by *androidman Sep 28, 2009, 10:11:23 AM
there are many things i actually like about this work that raises it above what would be considered excellent.

the sense of scale, which the artist is trying to achieve has been superbly rendered in this work, you can see the amount of time and effort used to get to this goal, look carefully at what seems to be a river below and draw your eyes up and you can see how the earth has been built up. the wideness of the landscape has not been approached with the usual landscape form, for this artist dares to use an upright portrait style which has been wonderfully pulled off in the work. the added detail of the soon to be flier lends the scene the final piece and shows the full depth of this work. Great use of colours and a very atmospheric scene. well done. good work

This is truly EPIC. No other word can describe it better, in my opinion.

For some reason i can relate to this drawing. I always wanted to be up in the sky or at least a place thats high off the ground and has alot of windand fly away(broke my arm in doing so because i wanted to fly and i was on top of the roof so i jumped. I was little) but i could never achieve it.
Overall cool drawing looks stunning!

There's a guy online who's stealing art and selling "Authentic" canvas prints/paintings online. Yours was hit here [link] There's a big thing going on [link] I felt I should let you know.

I love the depth of field in this, it really makes the view look huge. I also like the orange tone linking the guy to the birds and showing that he can be the same as them if he really tries. ^^
