Artist's Comments

I am confusion. Lost in rythms I'll make my home on a base of shifting sands and crashing waves ---always crashing me down , always leaving drift. Floating on endless currents of thoughts -- I sink into desperation -and- meet my bottom. A picture says a thousand words, and this is my vision: turbulent confusion and frustration; like leaves fluttering --falling --flying in gusts of change . All this cast on a backdrop of glittering hope for the f u t u r e .

Close grip of lasting warmth from friends, holding it all together - holding me together.





Well there's my box, and I just stepped out of it; as I defined this piece to a friend at school: it is my present life poured out onto a digital canvas. This is the year end, grand finale for my space art career- atleast until next year when I finish the series with the third and final piece. The two models are ~unclejemima and ~Cow-girl, both my real life friends of course; I thought they were very appropriate both in relation to myself but also the piece.

I wanted everyone to know that this piece is * 100% * my own, that means down to every last texture and post-work stock etc. etc. This is significant because I find these days and have always found it almost impossible to get away from using other people's textures etc and that was why I made a huge effort to get all my own stuff and stay completely away from other's stuff so that I can call this piece entirely my own art.


I dedicate this piece to Claire, Teagan, Dan, Brynn, Ian and Kim. I love you guys and I've got to thank you for always being there for me and supporting me throughout my life.

The pen is mightier than the sword, if it is sharpened to a fine point, dipped in deadly poison and thrown from 10 feet away. But really, you're better off with a sword.

I want to know how God created this world. I am not intrested in this or that phenomenon. I want to know His thoughts, the rest are details.

Yea I actually found a number of parts where I realized that I could pull things off better if I used other resources that I had that weren't my own; but that was a really big part of the piece was keeping it all my own, and that led to a decrease in production in some areas. Thanks for your comment mate.
