Thanks again. "Fountainhead" is somewhat inspired by "Awaken" by Yes as well as "Fountains of Light" by Starcastle.

AMAZING.

~Tolkyes Sep 27, 2012 Professional Traditional Artist

Thanks. An early painting of mine done back in 2000. Completely spontaneous.
Nowadays I layout the landscapes in most of my paintings ahead of time using photos as reference to one degree or another, leaving room for some spontaneity in places.

You're simply fantastic..your surreal landscapes are amazing.And I can say the same thing about the Music you listen to.^_^ YES..is one of my favorite Progressive Rock Band of ever..near King Crimson,PFM,Asia,Orme..Steve Howe is one of my favorite Guitarist..he is a genius..

Oh this is indeed fantastic. A fountain of otherworldy delights

~Tolkyes Apr 22, 2012 Professional Traditional Artist

Thanks. This was one of my earliest paintings. It was fun to do. Sometimes I can get rather bogged down with some of my spontaneously created paintings because I'm not sure in what direction to take the image. This is one reason why I tend to use photos to go by more in my later work.
With "Fountainhead" though, everything just seemed to fall into place.
