Description
Twirling round with this familiar parableSpinning, weaving round each new experience
Recognize this as a holy gift, and celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing
This body holding me
Reminds me of my own mortality
Embrace this moment
Remember
We are eternal
All our pain is an illusion
Special thanks to *j3concepts and TOOL.

Same here. Tool is my favorite band; Prince has sort of stolen the top spot for me, though. If you can get past the kitsch, I would suggest delving into his whole thing.

im old enough to have been into prince before purple rain (41) i've nevr been ashamed to place him in my top10 artists. He also is one of the greatest guitarists to ever play. one of the greatest frontman/performer to ever play live. so, prince definitely gets props from me. I've been lucky enough to have worked in the music business for 24 years now. i've been everything from record store manager' A&R with ATCO Records i was one of 3 a&r guys who signed Pantera. I have varied interests in my music just as I do in my art tastes. I typed in maynard james keenan and it got to be the art i was drawn to the most was yours. Keep up the awesome work. I'll try to get somebody in tool's camp to give your work a look. I have as much a chance of piquing their interests as you but, i know some people. Stay in touch man, I can turn you on to some great music no one will ever come near TOOL but, there are some excellent artists out there.

Tool !
I still wonder why they aren't more known, but anyway, congrats for your excellent musical tastes
As for the pic, it's really beautiful, very close to what inspired it...very much in the "tool spirit"...(in fact it reminded me about Tool even before I saw the title...) so, bravo for your sensibility and artistic gifts <3

You have impeccable taste in music, not to mention impressive artistic capabilities. I was pleasantly surprised when I clicked the thumbnail to see this piece is much more busy than it looks at first glance, AND the inspiration is one of my favorite songs of all time.

lovely. the blue lines remind me somehow of veins of a precious ore (like turquoise or something) running through rock. pretty neat effect. i also love the addition of the hearts.

Everything looks random, but with closer inspection, the lil 'random' details that are there really brings across the look and idea of the image. very cool...
