Raziel by Steve Stanley

Raziel
© 2010 Steve Stanley ***published work featured on Digital Artist Magazine issue #4 CD in Gallery...as well as,in FXPOSE' on IFX issue #64 cd. ...the Hierarchy of Angels includes an intense being who is given the task of deciding who is justified and who is not. I decided to make this an exercise in sepia interpretation, using mixed media. A number of nature textures were blended in. Also, Daz 3d modeling and rendering. Airbrush, blenders, pencil, acrylic brushes, and charcoals were also added to create the tones and contrasts. Approximately 30 layers went into the final product. Approximate time to finish: 67+ hours.

    ...so Dragonbeast your thoughts provoke a thought. Nothing "easy' has ever been in my vocab. I wish the accomplishment were that simple. I ache and ooze the challenge most of the time, and strive to go beyond the comfort zone. But, know my own limits

    Cool wings, little detail but great impact. Im also gonna give you high praise for going the hard way. Angel wings are relativ easyu when faced forwards as you could have done here. Instead you put them in a weird angle which requires alot more mork. I kn

    Thanks for your comments regarding my work! You made me notice elements and techniques used in my work I wasn't consciously aware of. This is my favorite piece. I like the "rough" approach, which is not very common in works depicting angels. It's

    There's more drama in this with the flying dirt and debris. Her wings appear angelic but her stance and facial expression suggest something more. I like the way you present contrasts in your subjects.
