Wow Annette I am truly a fan of your work, you are a very bold artist, your work seems to be an extension of you, which, to me, is the sign of a great artist. your work blows me away
The 1st thing I saw was a bridge but then I saw a sad face in front of a building with an archway behind to the right. Maybe its more to do with my own feelings right now Annette but this one says to me there's sadness around. The bridge or the archway, which way should I go to find happiness. I love images that provoke deep thoughts & this image does that for me. XX
I like black and white work Annette because it puts our minds to work. It gives us an undeniable appreciation for the unknown and allows us to escape into any direction we may choose. Work such as this gives us unrestrained visual concepts that only we ourselves could possibly realize. There is no black vs white when viewing work such as this. Excellent!
I love this!! I actually see a women, empty, lost, shrugging a shoulder in acceptance, wandering. A few years back I felt this way; Thank goodness that is a thing of the past. LOVE LOVE LOVE.
Funny, I never even noticed any sort of "bridges" theme until reading some of the other comments and your explanation, now I see that too.
This is that kinda stuff I don't understand but I really like anyway. I can never do this because I would get stuck somewhere and start thinking and then I'd lose the muse. So I admire your discipline and vision.
Oh yeah, and clarity! ...I like the way the other comments explain it, but I just know it's good.
the contrasts work very well in this piece. the viewer can be set to look and gaze for a bit since there is much to study and ponder on this work. great presentational work- marked from me as my choice of pic of the day!
