I've been waiting to submit something until I have a piece that I'm actually completely happy with, but I realized that if I do that, I'll never submit anything again. So here it is... enjoy.


sort of a companion piece to Sandcastles

I had those dreams as a child. They are now rare and precious. It's lovely.

The paradox of life is that throughout it you create your own prison by how you perceive reality... and then try to escape from it...

I was here.

My immediate reaction was one of empathy. This is a lovely picture that pulls at that nagging feeling of helplessness and possibility (mixed with much dread) in me, but with a dreamy feel. I love that the person is still partially entangled in the bedsheets, as if they are just waking. The cracking wall is a nice touch; it provides a transition point between the tangibility of the bedroom and the doorway-floating mystical space.

I get a small thrill every time I look back at this. Beautiful use of color. I feel a jolt of fear and sadness when appreciating this piece, though I think it's meant to be uplifting. I feel like I'm going to pitch off the end of my solid earth and into doorway after doorway to nowhere.

I can't belive that you'vr posted sth... At last!XD

Run, rabbit, run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

An excellent work, a magic dream,
Is fantastic
