Funeral At Nadir

Many thanks to my mate Cecil for modelling for me - I suck at drawing flowers. p.s. Cameron (the boy) was a good model too.

Holey Crap! Get you sunblock on before you leave the bubble! Great texture in the sky.

Artist Reply: He he, thanks Dan. CO2 causing Global Warming (sorry, that's subtly changed now hasn't it? sorry, "Global Climate Change") is a lie anyway, screw the state! enjoy the sunshine!

Like the cover of a Science Fiction novel, there is an apocalyptic feel, but the boy and the plant have an emotive touch. I like it.

Artist Reply: Well if you knew the boy model like I do you'd know why there was an apocalpse. Cam, if you're reading this, get off the internet and get some fresh air before I slap you around again. he he.

Gosh! That is so beautiful! The colors are just great.

Artist Reply: I wanted to use a really bright artificial pallete to signify a chemical man made disaster so I started with turquoise and green, but I changed it to this really (over?) saturated hot-tangerine colours instead. The city in the background started out non-derelict, but I realised that I ought to blow holes and knock a few buildings over for that historical apocalypitical flavour that I love so much.
