Artist's Comments

English:

The N4R-C150 robot, better known as Narciso (Narcissus), was a discontinued model of Myth Inc. robotics company, sited in Greece.
It was a very useful model, but a failure in their processor made that whenever the robot saw his reflected image on some surface, he started to act like a complete idiot.

I had this sketch of a robot and didn't know what to do with it... Finally I decided to paint an image based on Caravaggio's 'Narcissus'.


If you like it, let me know.

Era un modelo muy útil, pero una falla en su procesador hacía que cuando el robot se veía reflejado en alguna superficie, éste comenzaba a comportarse como un idiota.

Tenía este boceto de un robot y no tenía idea de qué hacer con eso... Al final decidí hacer una imagen basada en el 'Narciso' de Caravaggio.

Wow, finally something that is yours!

You know, this is so much better than any lifelike portrait you do or any of those things. This is your imagination, your mind telling us what it sees, which I appreciate way better than copying someone's portrait ;)

The only problems I have with this painting is a. the ripples aren't very realistic. Ripples are spread more widely and gently usually.. you should definitely look at some references :heart:.
b. I would have loved to see some details, such as little flowers and shrubbery - just something to give this image another edge and contrast the robot.

Other than that - marvelous work :hug:

There's always a bright side to life. It's just a matter of not being too colourblind to be able to see it.
