Artist's Comments

Like I said in my last deviation (the AFI Advertisement for their tour for December Underground) I will be dealing with a lot of advertising dealing with music and bands. This is a preview of the ad I am doing for Tool. This will be altered somewhat but will be incorporated into a poster design for tool's last tour for Lateralus.

If your a tool listener you can see some similarities between this wallpaper and the lyrics. I tried to incorporate the shell into like an infinity symbol representing life will continue forever in some form or another (and of course incorporating the lyrics in the title track "Lateralus" "Spiral Out" which references possibly DNA strings? possibly the golden ratio and it's spiritual meaning to life) I also while trying to manipulate into a infinity, tried to maintain a ying-yang like effect with the symbols, it may not be perfect but the reference is till there.

The stock girl photograph will eventually be changed on one side to represent something entirety different once I have completed the Advertisement poster. But for submissions sake.. I figured this would make a nice wallpaper for someone out there.

This may seem a little rushed and incomplete, it's just a random wallpaper though, more thought will go into the design of the actual advertisement.


I want to thank ~neebow-stock for use of her image here:

Your lack of planning does not constitute and emergency on my part

ah! I always wanted to do something based on the golden ratio, but could never think of ANYTHING. I have no idea how you did this, but it looks incredible. The detail is overwhelming. I like how the girl has no face, it's a strange feature, but seems to work for this piece. The only thing I'd recommend is that where the two spirals overlap, perhaps soften that edge. It looks too clean-cut. Or at least, it does to me.

Egocentric? Oh rly?

I totally agree with you.. I rushed all over the place with this one because I wanted to go another direction with it and I just wanted to save this version of it for a wallpaper to submit, and like you...I've since fixed that aspect..but it sits on my computer :lmao:

My soul's ablaze
Inflamed with rage and isolated
In whirlwinds of hate
My soul's ablaze
Yet camouflaged in the haze
