"You called me blue? But why? There's nothing blue about me."
Why blue? I'll tell you why blue. Because blue is strange, blue is bizarre. Blue is the misfit of the entire color spectrum! Have you ever wondered why blue ketchup failed? It's because our minds can't connect with it. Blue is inorganic. Blue is alien. Blue is unnatural, as unnatural as the blue genetically engineered blossoms we had at the lab that you, doubt you can remember since you were but a shell, were always so attracted to. Blue is the sky that, when we throw ourselves at it to reach it, still alludes us as it fades into the dark. Blue is a fire so hot even the toughest alloys bend to its angry will. Blue is the color of a distant sorrow that I, even though you always dorned your skeletal smile, could see in your empty eyes. That's why, when I saw you there, your blue face with your cold blue fingers holding your precious blue flowers, all I could see was blue, and that's why I called you BLUE.

i myself have always been at odds with the color blue, especially when painting, leaning more to the colors you see in the very very background. The puzzle piece just doesn't fit quite right...

O_O faved.
just as much for the image as for the writing with it.
The painting itself is pretty cool, but that crazy monologue makes it awesome. I'm obsessed with color symbolism, too, as you know.

Cool! As soon as I saw that monologue, even before I full-viewed I knew it had to be Nero...

The blue painting got me interested, but that monologue got me mesmerized.
Kay san Says:
I love that monologue.
ZiggyBuggy Says:
I agree with everyone else...that monologue is simply stunning!
Great picture!
Excellent picture too...and great lighting! I'm still struggling with lighting ('cept I'm doing my thing in greeeen), so I'm gonna take a good long look at this and use it to my advantage.
The other thing I love about the picture (other than the lighting) is the little half-hidden details, such as the DNA spirals...

That monologue is great :) I like how the "plants" project light shaped like DNA. And that robot's face is eerie.
