Looks like Escher and Salvador Dali had a child.

As there's no symbolism in this work, no hidden meaning, nothing I wanted or needed to express but only the pure pleasure of being creative I think you "understood" there's nothing to understand.
Thanks!

The older I get the more I know I know nothing. Art that pleases me to a level where I don't need to understand is great art. This is great art!

Some fine convolutions you've birthed there. Great balance of darks and lights. A surrealistic masterpiece.

It is, but I really continued working in the same vein as I did in other more traditional techniques so I could rely on years of experience . Plus I have been using Photoshop for several years as digital darkroom. Digital has a different feel (there's no original for example) but it offers some advantages other techniques don't have like the inevitable undo, the saving of different states, layers... For the moment I now want something else, but it'll certainly not be my last digital work.

exhausting... I started this shortly after the death of my father. As he had been ill (failing kidneys) for a long time, my mother was exhausted and I had to stay at her place to help her give his death a place in her world and help her find her balance back. So I got a laptop on which I started this. A few months later, when I gcould take some distance once again, the laptop crashed, and I believed it lost.
But late 2010, I found it again on some old memory stick and decided to finish it. Which I have been occupied with for the past four months or so. Near the end, it really became a very steep free-climb with no ropes attached and a serious amount of vertogo... but I finally managed to finish it.
And I'm happy I did.
thanks!

Your writing is as good as your visual art, it seems. Your metaphor of using no ropes, is quite beautiful.

Thanks for sharing. Every work has a story but IΒ΄m sure this one means too much for you,to find something you lost is always a nice event, and I think this was in a good time.
IΒ΄m happy you did it.
