Dream Octopus

Shanghai (Apr 30, 2005)

This octopus-like creature lives in dreams. It was created by dreams and once it had enough mass could begin molding and shaping the dreams around it.

The idea is that when we create something we draw upon all our past experience. It came out of my imagination and past experience, gained mass by the light produced by your screen, and affected you by adding to your lived experience, making it real enough to have influence. Just like parts of it are affected by my own experience, now parts of future works will be affected by this one.

Summon? lol when was the last time you touched Magic, buddy?
Hmmm... i'm thinking
Dream Octopus (X)(X)(U)(U)
Creature - Cephalid
When Dream Octupus comes into play, remove (X) target non-land permanents from play.
Dream Octupus has power and toughness each equal to the number of permanets removed this way.
*/*+1

EDIT: What the... what happened to the message above mine?

The whole piece is wonderful, especially the lighting. Amazing.

Turtlebuster (May 2, 2005)

i've always thought your pictures look startlingly like photographs put through some kind of filter in a photo editor. really amazing looking.

Miss_DJ (May 2, 2005)

I LOVE the colors and perspective..this is great!

safescene (edited Jun 11, 2005)

Goodness. Well this has got to be one of the more distinct pieces on here. Light is such a wonderful gift; you make me ridiculously happy, sir.

Animegirl250 (May 5, 2005)

I like your style ^_^ the background is cute i want one of those things!

DieChan (May 15, 2005)

If I took one of those things in the background home I'm scared that they would eat my nose off in my sleep. I love this, evil man, dead bird... it's all good.

shudson (Apr 26, 2005)

You know you spend too much time drawing when you have a dream about drawing here. And about losing the drawing, crying, and saving it. This was more or less the picture I drew in my dream... what I can remember of it.

You found a great way to use those beautiful sparkles! This is amazing! I love your stuff!

HunterKiller_ (edited May 2, 2005)

Yeah this is great, once again. You reminded me about this dream i had a some weeks ago about painting some crazy thing. I'll be sure to draw it here, maybe with my new Graphire3 that i should soon pick up! ^.^
EDIT: And i just remembered the picture in my dream also had a purple background =O Maybe it's a Gemini thing ;)

geekyshoes (May 2, 2005)

drawn in 54 min

i can not...

nekodesu (May 1, 2005)

Wow! nice! You have a really beautiful wife zep! =D And her hair doesn't look crappy at all.
And speaking of geminis...I'm a gemini too XD I do tend to spend a lot more time on a drawing than I plan to...so in a way I could be a perfectionist.

Ty854 (May 1, 2005)

I think the hair looks great!

Miss_DJ (edited May 2, 2005)

another gemini here...this is lovely, I think..and your wife is lucky to have a man that adores her so much. Sounds like you're both lucky in love.

I remember you

TRIP (Apr 30, 2005)

I remember you from a time when my mind was less tainted.
I remember you from when a sky was blue and the grass was green.
I remember you being there.
The only one for me.

I love your style, this picture is so vibrant!

DeadlyBlondeArcher (May 1, 2005)

This is just ...."trippy". (Pun intended.. okay, you don't have to laugh) When I look at this the angles make me feel like my equilibrium is a bit off... great effect with the perspective.

davincipoppalag (May 1, 2005)

This is a grabber.. The colors,, the perspective, the whole scene..great stuff

somebody (May 2, 2005)

Not only am I impressed with the picture, I am impressed with your grammer and verbage (if thats even a word hehe). I LOVE the little flower. It's very dellicate in an extremely bold picture.

Anna (Apr 30, 2005)

Awesome! I love the details like the hole and string that holds the mask on. And the way the string makes that indention in his hair. Very credible. Great work, zeppy :-D

Punky (Apr 30, 2005)

this is very beautiful.. the dude wearing the mask reminds me of Keanu Reeves.
stunning work as usual
