Ulalume

Acrylic on Canvas Panel

60x80 cm

This comes right out of my head, I didn´t use a foto or something like that, I just had my vision, which is a little unusal for me.
But I am a little proud of my new "baby", because it developed so autonomously.

I searched for the title after I painted this, so I stumbled across this poem of Poe, "Ulalume".



Ulalume
----------


"[...]
From the secret that lies in these wolds-
From the thing that lies hidden in these wolds-
Have drawn up the spectre of a planet
From the limbo of lunary souls-
This sinfully scintillant planet
From the Hell of the planetary souls?"

EDIT:
Hm...the foto is all-too bad. Perhaps I have to take one again, when the light is better.
