T h e S o u l B e h i n d:
My name is Gogo Melone, female singer of the greek Death/Gothic Metal band LUNA OBSCURA and freelance digital artist since 2007, having my own art studio business.
My art is a mixture of digital art and photography. I consider it dark and feminine. I like to express different human feelings, to get inside and show the beauty of fragile souls, the cold or dreamy places using the most of the time different water effects. I love water and cold and I guess these are the only things that can describe my world the most.

....is always my favorite music. Guess i was enough creative all the times that I had to live in silence...well until now :). I'm not a good friend with books and still try to be open minded but I prefer to read lyrics or even poetry, no without music. Other inspirations are whatever can feed my brain...fears, my dreams, every past memory, every single day, people's behaviour, the movies (I'm a big fan, like you :D). I LOVE water and all my works have elements of water! Dark, emotional, surreal artworks are also in my list of favorites...I like to see works of others, is so encouraging and good to know that I'm not alone.
