If you venture into the woods and feel the watcher’s eyes. Be sure to show all due respect. For you are just a visitor the watchers’ presence is meant. Burnt Umber, Burnt Ochre and Black coloured pencils on W&N Smooth Cartridge paper
I’ve long loved the music of Genesis. This image is inspired by the classic song / Watcher Of The Skies / Watcher of the skies watcher of all / His is a world alone no world is his own / He whom life can no longer surprise / Raising his eyes beholds a planet unknown Creatures shaped this planet’s soil / Now their reign has come to end / Has life again destroyed life / Do they play elsewhere, do they know / More than their childhood games ? / Maybe the lizard shedded its tail / This is the end of man’s long union with Earth Judge not this race by empty remains / Do you judge God by his creatures when they are dead / For now the lizard shedded its tail / This is the end of man’s long union with Earth From life alone to life as one / Think not now your journey done / For though your ship be sturdy / No mercy has the sea / Will you survive on the ocean of being / Come ancient children hear what I say / This is my party counsel for you on your way Sadly now your thoughts turn to the stars / Where we have gone you know you never can go / Watcher of the skies watcher of all / This is your fate alone, this fate is your own The video above must be from ‘72 or ‘73, so is a little rough in spots!! / Made with Apophysis 2.08_3D hack / /

White Pelicans arrive here each winter and they are a joy to behold
Sure, the bird was interesting, but he really should have paid more attention to what was coming up behind him. Unfortunately for Willie “The Birdman” Whiters, it would be the last mistake he would ever make. I just finished this one up last night. Overall, I’m fairly pleased with it.
Silently the Watchers looked on while the Stag of Forestonia, bathed in moonlight, searched the perimeter walls for his lost love….. More Photoshop Magic! Description for the DAC Group This was made using a photo of my black cat Fleur – sitting on a wall in sunlight looking out over the fields. I removed her and the background from the original shot, and then used a the Panopticum ‘Instant Mirror’ (Vertical Right) to produce a duplicate. I then used the Flaming Pear ‘Atherise’ filter (a favourite!) to change the colour of the image (making it night from day). The moon, clouds and some of the trees are photographs made into Photoshop brushes – these I use a great deal in my fantasy work. Then on a separate layer I create a glow/moonlight effect with the dodge tool – painting behind and down onto the stag below – increasing the brilliance using the light/shadows adjustment. More brushes(from the artists credited) are used on separate layers and given various effects with the ‘blend option’ for each (sorry I can’t recall all of them as I ‘play around’ until I’m happy with the result (the fun part!). Thanks to the following Deviant Artists for use of their fabulous brushes! Castle and Cathedral Brushes – Reine De Cueil / Tranquility Brushes – Wyckedbrush / Stag – Supalimstock

This is one of a series called ‘windows.’ It seems every where you look kids are looking through windows in Rwanda. A bunch a white people arriving in a remote village is too much for the curious.
i couldn’t choose between the two.

Sitting in position, the Watcher peers through the curtains, observing all who pass.
The next time your all alone and you get the shivers or your hair stands on end, you should ask the question / are we really alone or is someone or something watching us?
