One by one, we break the sheep from their Iron Bar Prisons and expand their imaginations, make them think for themselves. In turn, they break more from their prisons. Eventually, critical mass is reached. Our key word: Resolve. Evangelize with compassion and determination. And realize that there will be few in the beginning. We are hand picking our successors. They are the future of Discordianism. Let us guide our future with intelligence.

wow BMW (Alana), that looks awesome!

i can see how it's partly inspired by some of Kai'enne's style, but it's also got some stuff that's definitely uniquely yours!

i love how organic all the shapes in your picture look, everything about it sort of reminds me of a certain kind of butterfly (dunno which one, of course). not just the cocoon hanging on the branch (at least, i presume that's what it is), but also the textures and patterns in the bottom right, the same sort of structures you find on that butterfly's wing, or the veins in some other flying insect's wings (which i also don't know the name of :-P).

i like that a lot, you have obviously spent a lot of time studying the different patterns on insects and that shines through in this work, and not in a creepy crawly way, like a lot of other insect-based art, but just showing the beauty of patterns in nature, and that is quite novel.

That's beautiful!

There's a lot of room for growth in it, like in smoothing out some of the lines and getting more thorough color where you have it, etc, but for a first piece especially, it's amazing!

Great work; keep posting as you have more!
Be the trouble you want to see in the world.

Actually, Zero, a large portion of the right corner was unplanned and spontaneous...I didn't know what it was going to turn out like, or that it would have so many insect parts! *laughing* When I noticed that it did, I decided that the right corner was like the dreams of the pupa, and called it Chrysalis Dreams.

It still needs some cleanup and changes but is otherwise finished. I hope to start my next piece very soon! *smile*

Awesome. :) I really like the mix of blank space and intricate detail. Well done.

Ah, that is so pretty!

I really dig the composition of the picture - and organic form of the branch.
(and the tiny flower makes me happy, too)  :)

What's up with the constant change in signatures, BMW?  I'm getting confused.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

We're not ignoring this, rather we are simply having trouble addressing it in a way that will cause the least drama.

Very nice on both!  As I said before, the blend of abstraction and natural elements has a good look.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:
