“There comes a time in our lives when we do things that we don’t understand. We confuse ourselves, we might even logically oppose our impulses and yet we act on them anyway... There are some things that we feel that we absolutely must do. We might know that they are wrong, or pointless, or gravely punishable, and yet we do them anyway. These actions are not born of anger or emotion – we are perfectly sober. It’s rather inexplicable. When the time comes, we can’t stop ourselves and so we cannot blame ourselves.” -Umasi, Truancy

Don't blink! hahaha! Fun sci-fi show reference. I almost jumped out of my seat when I saw this painting. Great Quality!!! Keep up the good work!

Very nice, however i would have gone into more detail on face and wings, however that may be the photorealist in me talking, overall great though.

Well done! the shadowing makes it look very realistic. FYI, there was this episode in a sci-fi show and these stone angels were actually aliens. They are only stone when you look at them. It was rather wierd, but just thought I put that out there. Great painting!

As a painter myself, I must say truly beautiful! I could almost feel the night air and see the cloudy sky! That's an amazing painting!

Wow.  Is this seriously a painting?  The only way I can even begin to believe that it can possibly be a painting is the clarity of the moon.  Gorgeous piece of work.  Great job!!!
