"Stunt"
Call me sick, but I see a sperm that has no way to go, allegorically - a future stunted even before its foundation was laid. I wonder?! Thinking as I am writing...To me its about oppression, about never having a chance!
Love it! (trade?)

I can't help but seeing a snake in a cage or a box....the colouring is subtle and beautiful as well as the texture
still I get a lonely feeling looking at it

I love this one...(hey,i love all of your work in your gallery!!)
I am intrigued with your texture(alabaster and limestone powder...)and i like the simplicity of your piece(i sometimes struggle to know when a piece is finished)
Beautiful work.

Thank you so much for saying so...
It's a big consideration when making abstract work; when to leave the painting. Like most things it's a 'feeling' which comes with continued practice.
I always prefer less to more as I think a part leads people to the whole much better than giving them the whole thing...this allows the viewer room to invest themselves in what they are looking at.
Thanks again for your comment!

I really like this one from the subdued color scheme to the design as a whole. Very nice.

Two things: One is a "stunt" as in trick done in movies...which this could be like a fake weapon or a pole vault.
But as you put it in bars...it means "stunt" as in not allowing it to grow or restricting it's growth. The fact that it's white means innocence. An innocent person (a child) who has been restricted & cannot reach his full potential.

Well, you have described this piece exactly...I wanted this piece to be simple; with the ambiguity to lead to either one 'stunt', or the other, or both...guess I got it right, thank you Gloria!
