3Rs of Me-Reflection, Rumination, and Recitations: Amor Mundi and Pixel Chemist

Amor Mundi

Sunset Hill, 2005, Digital Art, Pixel Chemist

“Oh where are you going with your love-locks flowing

On the west wind blowing along this valley track?”

“The downhill path is easy,

Come with me an it please ye,

We shall escape the uphill by never turning back.”

So they two went together

in glowing August weather,

The honey-breathing heather

lay to their left and right;

And dear she was to dote on,

her swift feet seemed to float on the air like

soft twin pigeons too sportive to alight.

“Oh what is that in heaven where

gray cloud-flakes are seven,

Where blackest clouds hang

riven just at the rainy skirt?”

“Oh that’s a meteor sent us,

a message dumb, portentous,

An undeciphered solemn signal of help or hurt.”

Sacrificial Lamb, 2012, Pixel Chemist

“Oh what is that glides quickly where

velvet flowers grow thickly,

Their scent comes rich and sickly?”

—“A scaled and hooded worm.”

“Oh what’s that in the hollow,

so pale I quake to follow?”

“Oh that’s a thin dead body

which waits the eternal term.”

“Turn again, O my sweetest,

—turn again, false and fleetest:

This beaten way thou beatest

I fear is hell’s own track.”

“Nay, too steep for hill-mounting;

nay, too late for cost-counting:

This downhill path is easy,

but there’s no turning back.”

Dreaming Away the Clouds, 2006, Pixel Chemist

All artwork is by Pixel Chemist (Brian Rollason) and is digital artwork. You can find Pixel's Facebook Page under "thepixelchemist" and you can find him on deviantArt at http://pixelchemist.deviantart.com/.

Pixel and I became FB friends a while ago as I fell in love with his work! I love the progression throughout his work where he utilizes past forms and shapes of his early artwork (which are often quite organic looking) into his new art work. Pixel is an artist to continue watching as he continues to evolve and grow....

In the mean time, here are some more of my personal favorites.... Enjoy!
