Artist's Comments

Ok..

Album art contest organised by =BassDerek

This one was a little rushed, but I kinda like the finished concept.

Oculus is latin for eye, so naturally the band wanted an eye or sight theme for the cover art.

I decided to use Apophysis and create a fractal image of an eye ball, including the fibre strands and nerves that link it to the brain. However, when finished, the image also took on that of a fireball. I quite liked the result, and the different spin that it put on the design.

As usual, choice of font and text placement took FOREVER...... it works... just, lol

As requested (hey derek!) by the band, a full size image, at 1425 x 1425 pixels and 300dpi is available upon request.

Very interesting image - Could be interpreted in so many ways.

Perhaps it's just my mind, but I actually thought it was a sperm... ^^;.

Still, that doesn't detract from how polished and professional the image looks. Well done :).

another great piece, the only thing that bothers me a bit is the placing of the word.
and yes: an eyeball, fireball...there are various ways of looking at it...but it also looks a lil bit like a sperm. :D
still, love the way you did the coloring!

Why waste your time looking for proof, What if the answer is never the truth.
