J S 2003-05-15 I can't believe that this is digital! It looks like a traditional painting. You have unbelievable talent.   Vance Kelly 2002-07-14 magnificent!   John Shannon 2002-07-14 Outstanding !!!!   Vera Lucia Emerim 2002-07-15 Only this time I notice it is an Editor´s pic. It surely deserves it. And I can tell you are a true artist,one who makes we think about what we are seeing. This is Art in its essence.   aaa aaaa 2002-07-15 Beautiful work Christos, I'm particularly impressed with the sea and clouds. Wonderful.   Rose Meloche 2002-07-14 This is wonderful! Really impressive for photoshop... actually looks like an old style oil painting.   Dekel David Oved 2002-07-14 ooooo I -LOVE- the way you rendered that bright cloud!!!   Vera Lucia Emerim 2002-07-14 Beautiful and disturbing as ever, Christos! Great work with Photoshop!   Jessica Palmer 2002-07-14 This is the most impressive digital painting I have ever seen! I would not blink if I saw it in a museum among the old masters. i'm totally blown away.   Christina Neofotistou 2002-07-14 thanks to everyone who wrote so far, and to everyone to write in the future - if only for taking interest in my piece. as Vera Lucia's hawk eyes spotted, Andromeda is completing the role-inversion symbolism by wearing armor (a woman in armor is another classical symbolism of a phallus in erection) and by wielding a sword (a direct symbolism of the erect penis) in a meaningful way threatening the beast. in addition, Perseus is naked and chained, clearly at a disadvantage, and expressing passivity, and his penis is clearly unresponsive in all this distress. many thanks for viewing, once more   Anneth Lagamo 2002-07-14 I cracked up the minute I clicked on this--not laffing AT it, but just the sheer irony of it is just totally cool! Hee hee hee....... "You GO girl!" Gawd, the file~size must be huge! Nonetheless, an exemplary example of fine digital work, well worth the Editor's Pick! Congrats, Christos!   Cynthia Rudzis 2002-07-15 Quite simple one of the best works I've seen in a long time. Ethereal and fabulous Christos.   patrick Castell 2002-07-15 that is....wonderfull christos. the 3 months deserved it and u'll be proud of it all your life:) everything looks perfect to my taste.the light is gorgeous, compo , digital technics , ideas.. thanks:)) yep "thanks".   S.R. Braun 2002-07-16 Wonderful painting, I never seem to be able to get photoshop to paint somthing so painting like   Anna Draconida 2002-07-16 Great picture but...What's the head of a poor decapitated tunafish doing on Perseus's face ? And what's this obsession of yours with phallic symbols and the penis in general ???   (Christina Neofotistou) my "obsession" doesn't extend in real life, only in my art. and that "obsession" isn't limited to penises, but to the human genitalia in general. it's my small contribution to the fight against social hypocrisy: a lot of people don't like to acknowledge sex, driven by some taboo or another. my future profession will be a psychiatrist-sexologist. I can't leave these taboos standing. about the fish: I'm sure everyone here understands how much surrealism is based on dreams and visions -it's a fantasy artists community, after all! it isn't always readily explainable why an artist imagined a man with a fish head. thank you for your interest. Monica Izcovich 2002-07-17 I am in love with that sky and sea, Christos... the colours are amazing. I love the symbolism, the composition and the obvious work and dedication that went into the making of this wonderful picture. Like Vera said, this is *Art*.   Sergey Shevelev 2002-07-20 Very good work, I think! I especially like the sky!   Oliver Wetter 2002-07-22 o-O¿ wow,no need to discuss the deep expression in that very strong work,a true masterpiece,i love the mood of the constellation,...the colors are so well chosen, i don´t know what to say more:-)in short->its excellent...   May-Lin Iversen Demetriou 2002-07-24 This is absolutely beatiful. I didn't know one could do this with photoshop. And as a writer I am absolutely hooked on symbolism and hope that I paint pictures with words. You have certainly succeeded the other way around telling a story with a piece of art. :)   Erik Jakobsson 2002-07-28 dang, this must be the most ambitious coloring of a pic I've seen,. a pity the netlike foam on the waves didn't quite work out,. the clouds are wonderful though, remind me of old columbia movies like odysseus :P, the characters in the pic do aswell.   Michelle Olivia Farran 2002-08-23 I love it! Both the idea and the way you have rendered it. The whole thing takes my breath away: the composition, the background, the... Well, all of it. I'll stop gushing now, but the time you put into this really shows, it is great.   Lai Xie 2002-08-28 Great Piece Wonderful, this one reminds me of Dante's The Divine Comedy. I hope you can paint many serials.   Marcela Roberts 2002-11-01 wow. The watrer and clouds look very classical and the whole entire imaeg reminds me of a classical oil painting with some minor twists. I love it. Very nicely done and it deserves the editor's pick. :)   Marley Mcleay 2002-12-05 this is the best bit of digital ive ever seen im nort going to say much bar that i aim to get my images as good as this because i know it can be done!!! thank u soooo much   Marley Mcleay 2002-12-06 christos? those clouds are amazing,did u use a photo reference?i like the colour of the water,it realy suits the whole feeling.although im not up to date with greek mythology.so i couldnot tell u much about its message ecept to say it is a visual feast!   Marley Mcleay 2002-12-07 o wow christos i visit this piece alot, i have just noticed the volcanoe, if thats what it is way off in the distance. this is awesome   Lisa Falzon 2002-12-09 *eeep* this is so so beautiful, technically amazing and i love the idea too... and inevrted classic.... hehehe! great work! wissh i could make my mouse do this!   Amelia Stoner 2003-02-18 PHOTOSHOP? ::throws down tablet:: I give up..   Nell McKellar 2003-03-17 Bloody Hell! Christos, this is bloody amazing! I love the dark, stormy feeling. I'm a huge fan of the renaissence era, and to me this truly has that feeling of an epic, master work! No wonder it got editor's pick!!   Rochelle Green 2003-10-22 Oh my! Absolutely wickedly stunning!   Rochelle Green 2003-10-22 Oh my! Absolutely wickedly stunning!   Rochelle Green 2003-10-22 Oh my!
