Artist's Comments

There was a castle in the ancient times that was forgotten..... a castle were people was tortured, human meat was eaten... and more than a thousand histories of atrocities... that's the castle I see in my dreams... dreams that could be your nightmares...... ok who knows

Something I must add to the description after seeing your comments is that the nightmares are inside, things are not predecible from outside... usually all the atrocities you can see on the tv and that all, comes from people that you never would imagine... Also, for instance if you see a portrait of Elisabeth Bathory, you never would tell that she killed about 650 girls and tortured them she was beauty outside as is the castle but in her was the worst nightmares you can imagine... also some of you told in the coments that there is calm in the image..., how is the death if isn't calm...? as are the cemeteries.... that was what I pretended, now you understand my thoughts making this... the horror never will be outside, because you can't hope it...
Something I will add too is that the image is very old looking, and the title is "forgotten kingdom" because is like the actual image of a castle where atrocities happened... like a cemetery now is calm.

Notes: This work had about 15 layers that compose the mountain, castle, lake and sky.. and some others of texturing, brushes, colour etc.... used some brushes of asunder and belletrist to make an old look to the borders

Wow! I love the light bursting out of the clouds, it's all so beautiful...!
What you can't see you you can feel... all that's behind what's shown, what you can discover if you look .just a little closer.
