Artist's Comments

*Full View Recommended*

"Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down

Oh I'll never know what makes this man
With all the love that his heart can stand
Dream of ways to throw it all away

Gravity has taken down better men than me..." - John Mayer
-----------------

Artist's comments: I love experimenting.
I was really in the mood for something different today. Sometimes I just feel like doing a piece that is the complete opposite of what might be anticipated by those that watch me.

For me, it is always a challenge to do a piece centered around the male psyche. I have to step away from the familiar, and think of art from a new perspective. I had fallen in love with this song by John Mayer, and had thought of the concept for the art.... but it has certainly morphed quite a bit from what my original idea was. I quite like it.

Definitely different from the rest of your work. Not quite sure how I feel about it yet though... Maybe it'll grow on me. Either way, the work is phenomenal as usual. :)

Nice work. I like the concept here, or at least how I see it. The danger or "Gravity" of man's desire of the upward climb for knowledge and obtainting life's desires and the pitfalls that await when that's our sole desire.

Knowledge built the atom bomb.
Wisdom would have destroyed the formula.

I contemplated this for quite some time – I find it fascinating; it pulls me in. I like the dynamism, the strange flow to this image. The hands at the bottom reaching up (or wanting to pull down), the lightning (which could also be roots or veins in the main part of the image) – it gives me a sense of being pushed and pulled almost simultaneously. The colours are beautiful, as are the textures. I quite like your experiment too! :clap:
