Volume 4 Painted Figures
The creativity of people knows no bounds. Dreams and visions of alternate universes, where characters play out imaginary scenes make figures come to life in our imagination.
While not necessarily scratch built we pay homage in Volume 4 to Painted Figures. Each one is a unique representation of the vision in the artist’s head. Each one is a life form created to instill excitement, capture our attention, and excite our minds to the possibility of what can be created.
Enjoy the worlds of artist minds as you scroll through these pages and become inspired to stretch your own creative juices.
From movie characters to monsters, the inspiration of so many possibilities fills your mind. You lie awake after flicking through these pages, not knowing where you should start. As you slowly drift off to sleep, your mind is caught up in a dream that takes you along a path through a multiverse of minds, constantly creating and bringing to life, that which was only once a thought.
Reality has left you. You wander along a path, like a ride at an amusement park, moving without walking, gazing at creatures to horrid to witness. You see dragons breathing fire that seeks you out as goblins try to steel your soul, Pixies and Ghouls hiding among mushrooms and trees. Fear and horror take your heart, forcing it to beat faster and faster, and then it’s dark.
You see a light in the distance as the sounds of battles echo around you. Calls from commanders and soldiers waging war beyond your vision. They are fighting an unseen enemy, yet battle to hold their ground. Death is upon you and you know when the light fades you will be no more.
Just as you drift into darkness, accepting your fate, you feel a hand grab your wrist. It’s soft and smooth, a reassuring touch beckoning you to rise. You see horns of wood extending away from her face, with soft features the color of leaves. Her soft voice akin to a whisper, she helps you mount a horse, no, a deer, no, a creature with scales and the face of a lion, yet horns like an elk.
You are safe…… as you look into her eyes……..You feel peace…… or do you?
