"Der Sitz der Seele ist da, wo sich Innenwelt und Aussenwelt beruehren. Wo sie sich durchdringen - ist er in jedem Punkte der Durchdringung."
"Wir sind mit dem Unsichtbaren naeher als mit dem Sichtbaren verbunden."
Novalis
My passion is for the dark and esoteric and the military historical, be that an odd mix or not. I remain perhaps one of those now obsolete forms who still uses a drawing tablet to hand draw digital art rather than just push a button and dump AI slop everywhere
I love the occult, the mysterious, ineffable and numinous, - life measured by the degree to which an idea, aspiration, object seeks to lift one's mind to the hidden side of things
as Novalis described it - the outer world is an inner world that has been raised to the condition of secrecy.

I was wondering if it would be alright if I used one of your works in a TCG I am making. More specifically it would be your "French Dragoons of the Napoleonic Era." I will give credit to you by listing your preferred name at the bottom of the card.
Your work is nothing more than stunning and beatiful (idk how can I describe your art - really)
thanks SecutorSD - grreat username, which i know is a SW reference, but I am currently doing a bit of gladiator related art for a miniatures game and the Secutor is one of the warrior classes
I dont look on the home pages of deviantart much but did today and scheusslich is the word - 99percent of deviantart is just AI now and so the whole platform feels a bit dead really with - people or programs just have programs come up with the art for them - and even though the art looks nice, once you see its AI it just turns to langolier ash, even though the AI is arguably better probably than anything i could have the time to do, it still just is nothing, and with that a good bit of the fun and challenge drawing via digital art has just been stolen away. And sure i will prob keep carrying on like its 2015 for a good while, still making art for myself and others, but now anything i do that is half-decent i will have to assert or even be forced to try and somehow prove it wasnt also AI art... if anyone will even care to ask, or even see anything i do as no-one can keep up with the millions of images AI art is flooding the internet with everyday. But i will keep despite this post-mortem feeling the evaporated ghost of a world i pretend to have still some desire to remain existing in.
WOW!!!!!!!!???? AMAZING WORK!!!!!!
thankyou - glad you like my offerings :)
