Thank you, glad you like it I'm not a fan of making final interpetations of my own work… I usually have an intent, idea or emotion to loosely base it around when I start, but as my attitude to it evolves, I interpret it differently. It's been quite a few years since I painted this, for instance, and as I recall it was mostly to explore the dilemma of solitude - both freedom and lonliness depending on how one looks at it, and both yearned for when one doesn't posses it but exhausting when it is in excess, too.

Such a simple concept, yet made eerily beautiful by your use of neutral colors and shadow-like figures, and your title carries so much worth and intensifies the meaning of your deviation tenfold.

Ah, I love this. XD.

Brilliant, I Love the surrealism! The elongated figures add to the eerie atmosphere and the title fit well making the viewer think about the overall concept. Nicely done.

It's beautiful!! (That's too common to say, you should already know it)
The background is so cool.
Too bad I don't understand much the title (That may make me loose much meaning of the painting, will it?).
Waaaait... NOW I GET IT!!
Oh it so cool I'm speechless...
You should have won a prize or something! It has so much meaning that make me feel like breaking something (? forget that), besides it means so much to life and stuff!
I'm faving it! I thought I wouldn't but I will!!

I can't help to feel like it represents Death... Of the spirit, the soul, the mind, the body, Time... I dunno, but that's how I feel. Like the end of everything, and we can't do anything about it, because it affects us too.
