Artist's Comments

Neil Gaiman meets Terry Prachett :-)
I got that idea after reading their novel "good omen". I know that it is not "correct" because the elephants were missing, but I like it this way ;-)

It is another picture from my gorgeous Death shooting I had month ago. This theme is very inspiring to me and I had fun to make it =D But I really like how it came out but it has to be seen in a really big size..

the technique I used is a mixed one between Photography and digital painting.

One of my favourite cartoon character is Death from the sandman series from Neil Gaiman.
She is the second oldest member of The Endless family, a group of timeless beings who carry out the inevitable functions in every day human existence.

It was my wish for so long time (80th) to make a Death picture. Thanks to my girlfriend to arrange this shooting.

This is the fourth picture from this series :-)

ah, disc world. my senior likes reading terry's stories, but i go like, huh? since i couldn't connect, but i do like his story of a grim reaper in retirement, it had me in stitches while i was waiting for the lab results! i love the sandman's family, they are so unconventional and immortal but at the same time, eerily human in a way, like they echo our humanity :)

There are only two worlds--your world, which is the human world, and other worlds, the fantasy. Worlds like this are worlds of human imagination:their reality, or lack of reality, is not important' Titania, Queen of Faerie(The book of Magic)

I'm a fan of both Gaiman and Pratchett. At first, I was worried that another great writer died (Douglas Adams having already died young).

Pratchett's character Susan, Death's granddaughter, is also a great character. She stars in Hogfather.

Anyway, I recognized the picture right away! Great job!
