Eulogy In Oils

I like Mark's question about the inspiration, because this is amazing. There were so many wonderful piece, I don't know how you guys were able to vote! Amazing use of imagery (which was pretty much the goal of the contest) I love the style and flow as well, both help bring your images to life. Though the scene you've created here, is one I wish I could experience for myself as clearly as you've painted it here, I feel the voice and tone of this piece make it something so much more personal than even I am able to realize (I say even, because my mind is racing about this). Great Job!
