So there's this artist
Since I know some people *cough*cumuluscastle*cough* like to journal about art, and I'm feeling less like death and I was gone for a few days, I figured I would ramble about this artist I fell in love with in Artist Alley.
Meet Alice.
There are two styles of art I've always, without fail, been drawn to; impressionistic surrealism, and stark art deco. I'm well aware these are basically opposites. XD But in a sea of anime drawings (not that there's a damned thing wrong with them) I was rather struck by this haunting and colorful image of a man kissing a woman with a guitar string tattoo on her back. Thankfully she has a deviantart account, because this is what I'm talking about. The inspiration behind it warms my heart a little, though I didn't know it when I bought it. I also bought this one, because I have a thing about people breaking instruments.
So yes. Very much in love. I kind of want the whole series now. Because it's mythology and it's gorgeous and it's very personal feeling.
Plus her husband has an adorable accent and was such a lovely fanboy and helper for her.
