About this image

Please take the time to read my appended note section.

-Appended Note-


PERSONAL UPLOADING PHILOSOPHY:
Viewers of my images uploaded here are kindly requested NOT TO RATE THEM. Instead, if you would like to leave an appreciative comment or any comment as long as it does not break the forum/site rules, you are welcome to do so : )

Since the ability to turn ratings on/off in imageshare is currently unavailable, I have decided to take this stance. Since it is such, and official site rules (related or otherwise) supercede my personal request for non-ratings, I am fully aware and understand your(you, the viewer) freedom should you choose to rate and go against my little request.


REASON:
I upload my images for the enjoyment of others on this site. They are merely visual extensions of ideas. As such, I prefer my works to not be 'judged' beyond that context; I personally leave the importance and value of criticism, constructive or otherwise at work where my graphical and artistic profession requires it. Do note again that it is your freedom to comment whatever/however you wish, just keep in mind and adhere to the TESNexus rules.

-This ends the appended note-



*I will begin to append this note to all my future image uploads. It will be static and unchanged until further notice. So what you will see subsequently is the above and the following portion below. This asterisk portion is only applicable here as it is the first upload with my new notes. Thank you for looking and wishing everyone a neverending fun and pleasant experience in TESNexus as I do.



My Design Philosophy:

I am all about the ideas and being creative. I always start by opening myself up to all or any possibilities and alternative ideas. On two extreme fronts I do not discount the well planned method or spur of the moment ingenuity.


On This Upload:

I have always been impressed by the stature of the chapels within oblivion, so I decided to make it a subject for this little piece. Initially I wanted to play around with the idea of a two dimensional space (a simple picture postcard), but have decided to extend that initial idea and mesh it within a three dimensional setting. The book is there to imply, by comparison, how large the postcard really is. This idea consideration in fact goes deeper than what is visually present: on the base of it, it is a translated observation as to how through time, progresses in technology have enabled things to be better and at the same time making them smaller. It is also my cheeky way of saying how in very frequent cases oblivion npcs mostly keep to themselves and don't seem to have a social life other than boring vanilla on the street scripted hellos-and-goodbyes.
