Author, you need to put up info on what artist you are "copying" as noted in the guidelines. Either a link to their work or an image in your SBS

EDIT: Silly me for not realizing what you had done... I did recognize the image and thought it was similar to something I had seen but didn't put 2 and 2 together!

haha Nice one I thought it looked familiar

I would like to see SBS =)

Great tribute to fantastic artist...well done author....

Great job author.., Waz should be proud...

You do the most creative tribute.....congrats!!!

Haha . At first I didnt get it, but then I remembered some piece of work that looks familiar to this. Funny interpretation, although I have my doubts that I should be in the list between all the Magritte's and Dali's. Good luck!

I have no idea who you are trying to portray here author

Ibmaxed check source 3.
It's Sandy Clowes played by Sarah Jessica Parker .

Congrats but i have to say that you have not really portrayed the work of a "famous" artist. I find the entry irrelevant to the comp.

Makes me think of Pink Floyd for some reason. I like it

Wow! This is very cool! Art I would actually hang in my home!

Very nice work, but SBS would be nice, and who is the artist you are coping?

Emik...did you check the source links? its Son Of Man by Rene Magritte.
and i didn't do an sbs because it seems pretty simple to me. i just used 3 sources and put them together. a little gradient overlay and then a texture source. I guess if i have to, i will make one, but it will be a very boring sbs. cut and paste, cut and paste, cut and paste. and then blend. *sigh*
JC Freak: thank you so very much i adore pink floyd, so i'm quite happy it made you think of that.
And Rbsgrl thank you as well. i was quite happy with the final results

I have to say only well done...this is hit in the contest target center...best of luck

I would like to see SBS : - )

okay okay. tonight i will put together an extensive sbs. :lol: proper cut and paste style.

Good concept, but why not also imitate the original background?

I believe in adding in my own sense of flair. I couldn't bring myself to completely copy someone elses work. At all.
But its early in the show. Perhaps something might still change. It took all I had not to change the green apple to a red one.

Great .... love his work and your interpretation.

hot cha cha cha..

and for those of you who requested the sbs, check it out. its added now.

Thanks so much to everyone for the wonderful comments. i appreciate them all.
and CMYK..i decided not to change the background after all. :P

Great job with this counterfeit. Beautiful result.

I like your interpretation a lot, including your background choices. Well done, author!

Sweet.

Nice how you made that from a real picture = )

Me likey!!

Agrees with all! Very nice!

great and on target.. (just a suggestion.. for fun.. duplicate the finished image and blend it with Multiply and/or Overlay) see what happens.. it might surprise you.. (high pass would be fun as well, just to see the effects) good luck author (I know the thumbs down monster will smash this comment, but I don't really care, I'd love to see this image in other venues as well.. )

Wil try just to see.

very nice work...gl

Really love this.

Well conceived concept and really well done!

Beautiful the tribute, congratulations! but I think you can leave more like still frame

beautiful job.. very cute

Very nicely done, author, and on theme as well.

great job author...very neat...well done

Great work ...but the guidelines say you should include a sample of the artist you are "copying" or a link to his work. The contest is being judged on how well you imitated the artist but we have to know who.

Hey; I've seen that room before. Isn't that one of the back rooms at Dali's bar and grill? Always loved their catch phrase "Liquor in the front, poker in the rear"

Her pose isn't even close to the original. I could forgive that if you had at least removed the tattoos. That would show some photoshop skill.

Too dark in the bottom corner.

CMYK46.Thanks for your kind words,but still got a point.
I could not and did not wanted to copy the original

you could have at least made the woman at the woman look innocent like the artist did. You completely changed it and made her loook uhhhh like a SLUT!

Not even similar in style which i think is what it is meant to be.

This is a slut.Hangover vomits on the window.

wow , sex sex always will sell)

It's pretty good! but try and give a little more realistic image, however it is a picture .... GL!

lol author! how do you know she IS a slut? Oh boy...I should never get on pxleyes after I've been drinking. lol

The image is a little flat, needs some work on highlights and contrast.

Great painting, yes. Your interpretation is nice too, maybe as ibmaxed said could have some more highlights. What bothers me a little bit is the composition, everything happens on the left side, in the right corner it's as good as empty. Rest space is important, but since too many things happen on the left side, I expect *something* too on the other.
You changed the position from the horses a bit compared to the painting, which shouldnt be a prob for being an inspiration. What I think works great in the painting is that the horse really deems up from the dark and faces the woman, while the woman tries to be as much as possible with her face to the other side. In your entry, it looks like (or how I see it) as if the horses are looking at the gargoyle, observing what it's doing with the poor woman. Perhaps you should reconsider the position of the horses, but I leave that up to you...
Ow, step 6 is can be nice too for being dreamy, though I would make it less liquified then.
Good luck!

I never thought I'd say it about an entry here, but too light...
The Fuseli image has the objects within "the dark of night." These are all placed within a quite bright and smudgy looking background...

I agree wholeheartledly with Woz, the "flow" of the composition is off. You image starts at the upper LH side with the horses, and runs diagonally down to the darkened RH corner, where the eye essentially "falls off."
The original has a more triangular flow, with the figure grounding the eye's movement, and the gargoyle bringing it back up towards the horse's head.

An interesting homage, tho.

added the curtians back to the picture and filtered in some light
played with the eyes a bit to
i am still learning..... lets see what you guys have to say now,
be kind guys im a novice

Why not imitate the original composition? Two horse heads? Woman & gargoyle facing the wrong way?

Great work at recreating a difficult image.

always loved the fact that he made several versions of his own creation.. adding to the mix is quite refreshing.. good luck author.. really enjoy your take on the subject

It was good, but I think you should try to give a bit more sharpness to the image! good luck!
