At The Helmby *MichaelO

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Other

Anyone can hold the helm when the sea is calm. (Publilius Syrus ~100BC)

This is one of my oldest images. It's kinda where I began with my style of art, using my own brand of techniques in Photoshop. This also has some 3D mixed in including the masts and ropes.

Thank you for Daily Deviation #1!

This being one of my first deviations ever submitted, I was happy to see it reach 1,000 favorites after exactly 3 years to the day it was submitted.

Daily Deviation

Given 2006-02-22

It's great when an artist can create an image to match a theme or saying. In the case of At The Helm by ~MichaelO, this is pulled off with incredible imagery. ( Suggested by ~trystianity and Featured by `Aeires )

Your art is eye-catching and beautifully done. I love art that features ships and the sea, but I also know that it's very difficult to paint something that is original rather than cliché. This painting, though, doesn't look cliché. It looks gorgeous and I love it.

(I didn't even know this was a DD, lol I was browsing through your gallery and this caught my eye. It just occurred to me to check -- after typing the first half of this comment, lol Congratulations on the DD! It's well-deserved!)
