Artist's Comments

May you believe or not, may you celebrate this or any other event...

The truth is that, sometimes, the World needs to be reminded that Christmas is not only about buying and getting the best and the most expensive presents, but...

Christmas is about love...




A Merry, Merry Christmas to all of you.

Ooh... nice light (although a tad too bright on Joseph's left arm) and shadows and beautiful, beautiful shapes and curves on these sculputres. Nice with the black background. Well done and a very good and simple message for the holidays.

:love: ya.

"girls can wear jeans and cut their hair short and wear shirts and boots 'cause it's ok to be a boy, for girls, it's like promotion. but for a boy, to look like a girl is degrading, because secretly you believe that being a girl is degrading"
oh, i understand... you haven't bought my xmas present, true? :shakefist:

seriously, this is a precious shot. the sculpture is awesome, and you've taken this picture in a very emotional way.
the subject is perfectly cutted and framed, and the shadows over it are simply fantastic, it looks like them are in motion...

not to mention the symbolism (white/black) and the crispness of the details :)

very beautiful work my friend :worship:

I can only echo what Ed and Verena said, so...

Feliz Natal


(and thanks for the reminder Pedro)
it's great to see an image like this. no fancy ribbons and bows, no flashy lights. though i don't celebrate the holiday and really shouldn't think about it at all, i always worry that people are forgetting why they celebrate their holiday, so it's good to see you haven't forgotten. Beautiful image and hope you have a great Christmas!

This is such a beautiful picture and such a beautiful message!
I really love this. Expensive presents... you can give those to someone that you don't love too... but lil' things like leaving eachother a note, writing a lil' poem on a piece of paper, making something yourself and send it to someone... some autumn leaves in a envelop with the message that you like that other person... such things you only do to people that are in your heart, that's why a card, a friendly gesture means so much more to me than an expensive gift... for me, the people that give something too me are way more important than the gift that i get... and if the gift that they give me is "love" there can't be a better present imo.
Do you wanna send me a note with your snailmail address please?
take care, my friend
