Artist's Comments

After a long time, I’m finally submitting a new deviation…

This is my entry for the Italia Contest “Una matita per Poe” (a drawing for Poe)
The contest aim was to illustrate a short-tale or a poem by Poe to commemorate the 200th birthday of this great novelist.

I choose to illustrate “The fall of the House of Usher”…. However, I wanted to cite few other tales or poems (actually other 4) . Can you see them?

I made this illustration long time ago… but I wanted to post it only at the end of the contest to get time to modify it till the very last day.

Unfortunately, I’ve very few time to draw now… In fact, I’ve started a new job and in addition to my scientific research, I’ve a lot of time to spend in teaching!!
For the same reason, I’ve almost no time to surf DA

The mere symbology is enough to make my toes curl. Gorgeous.

Creativity is the best God.
It is niether biased, nor limited in its divinity. It is also accessible to everyone, should they wish to worship it, and demanding enough to give a person purpose.

The Raven
