Description Title: 'BEHEMOTH.'Creation Date: 16 February 2017.'Fire Portraits' Series.Year: 2016-2017.Influence: 'To Reign in Hell' novel by Steven Brust.Art Photographs: Photography of fire shaped into Portrait-like imagery, of the characters, angels, in 'To Reign in Hell', written by Steven Brust.Note 1: After doing the first art photo, I said to myself, 'I'm seeing some faces from Brust's novel in this image, and I need to investigate, and work this out further to see what develops.' Some of the characters in the story are represented by more than one image as the elemental fire is ever changing, and I see my subjects in different forms. Note 2: BEHEMOTH is not mentioned in the Brust story, but imagine that he is one of the Fallen Angels. Note 3: In demonology, BEHEMOTH is a fallen angel who is the ruler of the deepthe Abyss.* Fine Art Prints & Museum-Quality Canvas Prints of this Art Photograph at the following Sales Link at Imagekind:http://www.imagekind.com/Behemoth---fallen-angel-who-is-the-demon-of-the-de_art?imid=2abba8cf-4dc0-42d9-bc1f-de25e41cf47bImageKind Photo Number #2,189:TAGS:LEVIATHAN, FIRE-PORTRAITS, Lucifer, Mephistopheles, hell, to reign in hell, Steven Brust, firstborns, archangels, heaven-hell, good-evil, Illuminati, fire portraits, gold, flames, hot, heat, portraiture, mirrored photography, the dark one, smirking one, Nawfal Johnson, fine-art, ethereal, Morning Star, elemental, ARAKIEL, FALLEN-ANGELS, Agiel, Balberith, BEHEMOTH,
Nawfal Johnson, Malaysia Member Since September 2006 Artist Statement IMAGEKIND: ARTIST BIO — Nawfal Johnson — Smokephotographist Beginnings: When I pick up my camera ... when I compose the subjects in the frame ... and, when I plan and set up my lighting, I have one thing in mind — To take a better photograph than the last time.
I have been using a camera as a hobbyist since I was 12 years old, and then as a freelance professional since 1998.
Photography is a Madness for Me — My Work: I have been a long-time Freelance Stage & Dance Photographer; nevertheless, I focus much of my energy designing fine art Abstract, and, Abstract Expressionism Photography. I also design SMOKE-ART PHOTOGRAPHY, and that is the art style I focused on in my 2011 book, titled, ETHEREAL DREAMS and HOPE.
My Artistic Influences: My main artistic influences are Jackson Pollock and Robert Henri. As for photographic influences, I have always drawn inspiration from photographers Carl Fischer, and Andreas Feininger.
