Totally agree with the comments of praise below, and I really like the symbolism in this fab artwork!

Artist Reply: Thank you X=Chei : ) unfortunately and sadly destroyed in a fire though. Glad I have photos ... guess nothing last forever

This is Awesome! I adore this!

Artist Reply: Thanks, Lara! It looks even better (if i do say so myself) in person because of the wood burning which gives it a tactile quality

Very creative work! Nice colors!

Artist Reply: thank you, Rob! I sometimes take a while to arrive at the colors and then when it's done, you think it's been there all along !

awesome colour! and great name! it's an interesting medium you are using too... i can imagine it would add a sort of 3 dimentional effect to the artwork in real life that can't be captured very well in a pic like this. cool stuff!

Artist Reply: Thank you very much, Alinta. And yes, the picture really only shows one dimension. the frame is raised so it is higher than the picture and the black around the cross is actually empty space.The cross is a separate piece. Though i'm glad i received such a good reaction just based on the photo ! thank you again!
