Description This is the final piece for now of my Trilogy.

The first piece is The Source & Origin [link]
The Second is Elysium Utopia [link]

This was difficult for me to complete but I don’t see it as the end but only the beginning.
I feel this is some of my best work so far and I could not think of a more fitting way to finish the final part than as a tribute to my inspiration my best friend Sharon.

This piece is called: A true friend is a rare bird - Amicus verus est rara avis
Many heartfelt thanks goes to [link] for naming this piece, a truly wonderful artist herself and a such a kind soul, go and please check out her gallery.

The clouds are brilliant, but the bird... I am completely compelled and spellbound by the pure beauty of that bird. I could stare at this image for hours, just enjoying the small tweaks and descriptions you've provided. Brilliance.

whats actually happening far above the clouds
is veiled by a very thin feel through shroud
and when we have time to sit down and ponder
lord bhudda says"sell your logic for wonder"

as we are all bound to this one soul
thats being sucked into a big black hole
was there anything really going onn
except for the stars,and how they,ve shone

Definately your best peice yet. Love her, love the bird, love the border texture, and the way the lighting from the image extends to the border at the bottom.

Your pieces mean the world to me and the inspiration you give me adds up every single day. I told you in my email I would write about your piece more in here....but all I can say is that its wonderful. Beyond wonderful. It deserves its own art gallery. All your pieces deserve an art gallery.


You yourself as an artist have touched me in many ways and I owe you for this. I feel extremely honored for getting to name your piece and i'm sorry it took me so long. But nonetheless. This piece and you yourself will go down into my heart. I am planning on buying just about all your prints. But this one...I hope you make into a print because it has such a deep meaning to it.

Thank you for being a wonderful friend. Even if it wasn't alot..or didn't feel like it. You are simply a wonderful person.


many thanks....I could buy you prints I could send you money. But its your friendship that counts

There are no words to thank you enough for what you have done for me, only these will do justice.....
You are such a kind soul to say these things about my art and its the few people like yourself that inspire me to do better.

I owe you so much and it has meant so much to me that you named this piece for me and what a wonderful job you did, it fits just perfectly.

Thank you for touching my heart and for all your help, hopefully I can call upon you again in my time of need and that goes the same both ways.

I like to think that my friend would have been proud of the trilogy now that its complete but alas I shall never know. I see her strength in you.

I feel as though I've gained a friend
