Description I imagine you want full disclosure,
but to think about it drags me down again.
Please, I want my frail imagination back!
I want it all to stop!
I want to close my eyes to everything that got me here.
And I just wanted you to know,
I still hope I'm nothing like you.
I still want you to change,
and I still want to ask you,
Where were you when you robbed me of my childhood?

I really love this, even though I can't seem to full view it on this computer. I'm curious though, is that a dragon head I see?

There is an imp located on the tree stump if that's what you're refering to. Thanks for the comment

Actually, I was marveling at how the entire mass of the image seems to lend itself to the shape of a dragons head. I thought you might have meant for that but it seems it may just be a happy accident. Beautiful work

Wonderful work, amazingly evocative. That goes for all your work displayed in this gallery.

At first I was troubled by the repeated themes in the most recent works, but having followed the gallery to the end, I see you aren't limited to those themes.

I like the habit of hiding images within images. I haven't solved the puzzle for this one, but I see things that seemingly don't belong, so I surmise they are there to support the hidden image.

Great idea to accompany paintings with poems. There is only so much one can say in a picture, the words must tell us something about why you painted what you painted.

Thanks for your comments. I'm not limited at all, however I am fidning myself exploring something stuck in my mind to an end. I have no clue as to when that will be fully realized though.

Sometimes hidden images have a meaning in some way or another to the actual piece, other times its just an added surpirse you might not find till you've looked at it many times. I simply like to find details within details in art that I admire.

Re explorations to an end, I think I know what you mean. I have an idea that lodged in my mind about thirty years ago, and only now has computer technology advanced to the point that I believe the realization of it is within reach, so I'm working on it every chance I get. Courage, and patience.

Absolutely. Once the imagery exhausts itself I'll be able to move on to something else.

Thanks, Lergahin, I played with a lot of different angles on this one before I settled with this result.

Oh that's a good thing to do I think, you can choose the best angle doing that.

Changing angles can provide a more dynamic look and also push your boundaries.
