Artist's Comments

This is a work I did for the cover of a book named Einstein's dreams, although this is not the actual work on the cover of the book this was my interpretation of it :). Honestly this is my 3rd try, you can check out the 1st also in my gallery, after initially finishing this I found that I needed to separate the chunk of his head more and add more background,m I have a pic of the second try, but it is so similar that I have chosen not to post it here, if anyone wants to see it, just email me and I will send you a copy of that version.

Note: I acknowledge that the clock is blatently ripped off of Dali, I think the idea fit the piece well

when i look at Einstein's Dreams by ~darick, i see brilliant color and even better technique. I you read the description, you'll know that this idea was well worked upon, to get the desired look. it's a good example of how determination can make you succeed greatly. fullview is a must.

this one is much better than your first, it makes you feel like you have a sense of his personality

That's pretty cool, I love the expression on his face. And that little piece that seems to have blown off his head is an interesting detail. ;)

I really wanted to avoid using eyes in thsi one, sometimes its nice to have the figure looking nowhere (as if into themeselves) as opposed to us or an object
