this is very interesting. is it drawn/painted, cut apart and then peiced together from bits of paper? the idea works very well. it has a real feeling of exhilaration and spirituality. great job on this!

Artist Reply: Thankyou! A blue/purple wash was done, then cut up and stuck to mountboard to create the 'background', the figure was then drawn over the top.
