Description
***Absolute - a divine spark of inspiration
Absolute - beyond human control
Absolute - complete, infinite and unconditional
Embraced by Ars, the Artist turns into stone and becomes Ars himself, melting with Her into Unity. Or, maybe, Her touch brings the petrified Artist to life, since he cannot achieve full humanity without Her blessing.
Ars, subtle as She is, has a power over the artist, who is helpless and dependant, although rewarded with a laurel wreath. In his suffering he knows that the golden crown is a burden. As much as he would like to break free, he is not able to escape from this slavery. Alone, he cannot exist, so his soul is riven between pain and happiness, protest and devotion. Only united with Ars he can come to the complete and perfect entity - Absolute.

This struck me immediately as a kind of visual reflection of Tim Powers' book The Stress of Her Regard, which is about some artists of the Romantic movement (like Lord Byron) and their unhealthy relationship with a certain kind of spirit muse. In addition to the art aspect, the muses have a connection to stone and sometimes appear in a half-woman half-serpentine form.
The artist and his muse are universal themes, of course, and your piece stands very well on its own merits as a gorgeous interpretation of that tangled relationship. But I also wanted to let you know that this amazing piece of art that in many ways sums up my feelings about one of my favorite books.

Absolutely beautiful. I love how it looks like she's speaking him into existence--the Mother Goddess with the power to create life from nothing (or in this case, clay or earth). You have a rare talent (see your Seven Deadly Sins--Envy, for how I wish I could do this--LOL).

Beautiful. It reminds me of a classical painting by Jean-Leon Gerome [link] My mothers favorite painting. I enjoy his face and tense hand. It shows his feelings accurately.

Inspire me divinity to become another masterpiece in the blessed gallery. Inspire me, to evolve from a horrible mistake into a final revelation. Mold me to the finest entity but most of all..... inspire me to be absolute.

beyond words. Gorgeous artpiece. Absolutely Outstanding! I think I'm in love. Seriously, the whole composition is so envolving and enchanting, the soft and warm way she touch his face, overpowing him with love and caress while he's bleeding, all the tragedy and love mixed in the same tone. I have no words. Your art is such an wonderful gift for all of us, and a inspiration for the young artists.
Keep on goin'
