So odd the trails that inspiration decides to take. I was sitting on the couch, more or less doing nothing but vaguely skimming across the newest deviations, but my conscious attention was outside, walking with quiet thoughtful steps along the snowy sidewalk. A soft snow was falling, and I was just content to exist. Then this idea came, lunging, screeching and screaming out of the calm. And so..I, surprised and rather taken aback, decided to follow it..curious to see where..if anywhere it would take me.
The snow stopped and melted that night, but somewhere it remained with me as I painted it.
Now to decipher my words. I usually don't paint stuff like this, especially with the bright booold saturated colors I used here. But, it was a good experiment..if not frustrating at times. I think I was inspired by a multitude of things, mostly deviations here on DA..some of tigers...but mostly photography. I saw a good deal of overexposed photos and for whatever reason they stuck with me..I loved the drastic contrasts in color and the dominance of white in composition and wanted..if anything to try and paint something somewhat similar. So I did.
I am not altogether sure what I think of the piece. I can't even say if I like it or hate it, might just take me some time to digest it to find a verdict.
SO here he is, King of Hearts. Take him as he is..like it hate it..I suppose really art is just like anything, one man's trash is another man's treasure.

Beautiful indeed. Almost every fine aspect that you could possibly surmise is captured , and furthermore, the heart is just so touching! *laughs* This piece is something I will keep on my page; it's one of the rare few that are deemed excellent by me.
Superb isn't the word I'm looking for, but right now, it'll have to do. Way to go, pal!

Well, personaly I'd say please continue to experiment! This turned out really well. I'd like to see more in this style. Anything out of the ordinary is always fun. ^_^ Its nice to streatch your creative wings once in awhile.....and snow has a way of doing that to a person.
I can totaly see where it inspired you.
Thank you for sharing.

ana, i don't really know what to say! you always amaze me with your art, but this time it's really something special! a vibrant colors brought back some nice memories from my childhood, and it's overall a rather pleasant feeling watching this picture... it's so much different from all your other works! i really think you should draw more pics in this style!
This is a very unusual piece, and my reaction to it is hard to describe, but it's very positive. "Intense" fits, I suppose. :) Beautiful work.
I like seeing tiger depictions that aren't the sort of fierce-warrior type.
I may have to get a print of this once I have a bit more disposable income...
