Artist's Comments

This is a piece I did, say 5 months ago for a commissioner (no, not Gordon). Believe it or not, haven't had a chance to draw since then! But anyway, this is the piece they requested.

I thought it was quite an interesting idea. They didn't tell me what exactly the symbolism meant to them, but to me it encapsulates the inherent duality in us all. The bad that dwells even in the best of us. And even the good that dwells in even the worst of us.

Textures from the wonderful :iconprincess-of-shadows:

Enjoy!

I am the Wild Raven. I am the Strife Bringer. Conflict and Chaos shall follow me. I am neither evil, nor good. But forever cursed to cause turmoil.

hi BMH, good to see you posting again on Devart. The pencil texture in this drawing is amazing, simple lines, deepening shades of pencils highlighting the aspects of the wings.

I like the fact that this is not coloured, and that the location the angel is standing on is not defined...almost like a place between worlds. The duality of the image certainly comes through, that darkness resides in us all, and that also the balance inherent in nature, the idea that good an evil are each one half of a perfect sphere.

Look forward to more +)
