Marley Mcleay 2004-04-21 Yea i guess it is fantasy afterall ^^.Its certainly come a long way since it was in W.I.P, seems compositionally more balanced now aswell was a bit skinnier wasn't it?.Love the way the lighting is cast on the horses and the horses themselves look stunning!.a very nice piece of art jeff.~Marley   (jeff johnson) hey marley, thanks fer stopping over fellah! glad you like the changes made, and thanks for your input in the wip forum(i want to push the light/dark scheme in some works but not to the point where viewers with other rigs start losing the picture)i did indeed trim it down for compositional purposes. good eye mate;) Uwe Jarling 2004-04-21 ohthats cool - i am currently working on a four horsemen piece too - yours is breathtaking - congrats!!!   (jeff johnson) hey uwe! thanks and i am looking forward to seeing your take. Karyn Lewis 2004-04-21 Jeff: I really love the way you painted the big skeleton, and the subtle splashes of color you added--especially the way the gold and black meet on the horizon--reminds me of the palettes Whistler or Sargent used. And the lighting is well done too!   (jeff johnson) thanks karyn! i think you are about right on concerning my palette on this one-i had just gotten back from a whistler exhibit when i sketched out the project:) Stephanie Law 2004-06-30 Like Karyn was saying, I really love the subtle tones of gold in the background! Looks great. :)   (jeff johnson) thank you very much stephanie! glad you stopped by. Neven :: 2004-07-19 Very cool.

Kay Allen 2004-08-23 Love the colors and emotion in this...Great old bones guy.   (jeff johnson) hey kay, thanks for commenting on this. the color scheme is my favorite part, and i am glad you point it out. Rita Ria 2005-06-01 OH Jeff, this is so great. I just read lately a book (Terry Pratchett) and he said, first they were 5 (!) and he described them so well - would be sure fun to paint them... but probably not as good ;)   (jeff johnson) thanks rita! you shopuld definitely do your own version, may turn out wonderful and will definitely be fun!
