Dioxippus said:A quote from the biography on Rob Gonsalves:
"Although Gonsalves' work is often categorized as surrealistic, it differs due to the fact that the images are deliberately planned and result from conscious thought. Ideas are largely generated by the external world and involve recognizable human activities, using carefully planned illusionist devices. Gonsalves injects a sense of magic into realistic scenes. As a result, the term "Magic Realism" describes his work accurately. His work is an attempt to represent human beings desire to believe in the impossible."
Perfect way of putting it. Magic Realism. I also noticed that he's a CanadianI don't often feel proud of my country, but at this moment I certainly do!

Lucent found the artist's name, it's Rob Gonsalves. He's done some great works of art, some are very reminiscent of Salvia.burningmouth said:I don't know where those pics from post #5 came from, but I really like the people making up the bridge one.
I really like this one too. Thanks for posting it!burningmouth said:I also like the image below. It conveys the sense of replication and the idea of someone in the background controlling reality.

I like the first one a lot, but the one of the outside and the clouds really reminds me of my Salvia experiences. I usually dose outside, so that's usually what I see and sort of feel on Salvia.
