Artist's Comments

"Rain" (2005), acrylics on illustration board, 30 x 40 cm / 11,7 x 15,6 in.

"…I light two candles in the window of my mind
The wind that threatens I've no words left to describe
Resisting the fates
When mercy comes to shelter me
Over and over I am witness to the signs
Evil's more focused as we near the end of times
Praying so hard that your shelter comes to cover me

Plagues and famine and hate
All fall into the rain, let it go, let it go
The whole world floods in the rain – the rain…"

(extracts from the song "Rain", album "Room V" by the band SHADOW GALLERY, InsideOutMusic)

I did this small painting as an illustration for the song "Rain", somehow as a backcover illustration for the album "Room V", as it is the last song on the album…

Daily Deviation

Given 2006-02-24

In a technique deeply paralleling the level of detail achieved by established masters like Mark Wilkenson, Rain by ~RainerKalwitz is quite distinct and captures motion and mood with a dexterity that doe snot compromise nuance. (Suggested by *chrizcruz and Featured by `zeruch)

That really is an amazing piece of work. :clap:

I love it when I come across works that aren't digital. It's great to see that someone takes the time and physical effort to produce something like this. And it came out so well! :D
