Another stunning image my friend. The depiction of coming up for air from the depths of our own darkness. . .into the clearing. There is great peace in the space between. A part of us in each world. . .

Your work always has a good sense of movement. Love the light change and texture here.
stellar.

annacuypers, 8 months ago

Masterpiece again Mr Shifter! Love your fine technique and coloring here. Deep, dark image. Mystic also. Is she trying to keep her head above the water or has she given up and floats with the stream…
Anna
