Prospero

Prospero by Thomas Dodd

Prospero

“And, like the baseless fabric of this vision,
The cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces,
The solemn temples, the great globe itself,
Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve,
And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,
Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff
As dreams are made on; and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep…”

(The Tempest – Act IV, scene 1)

    I really dig the textures here. They actually will me to reach out and touch it, needing to feel it as I see it.

    You are an incredible talent Imageshifter, my head nearly explodes every time I look at your work! One day I think you might just kill me. Oh but what a way to go!

    Thank you Grace – I labored a loooong time over the textures on this one – soo I’m glad you dig it!
    Who knew that the asphalt in my driveway could yield such dreamy realms?

    Thanks Butch – as Sy Sperling says – “I’m already a member”! (in fact they use my “Titania” image as the group avatar)

    Thank you kindly Christopher – and you’re right – sometimes the ancient and the digital realms can converge quite nicely!

    Brilliant work. The distressed texture adds to the mood of this outstanding piece of a man that seems to be fading away as if his body remains, but his soul has left as in death in this time and space when the form decays and the soul leaves the body.
