    Ooh, very cool. Sort of philosophical, or maybe psychological. Reminds me of Dali.

    This image lends itself to contemplation. Is there a religious message? Why is the man in a cage? What happened to the winged person? Very interesting…..

    Definitely not a religious message. Just been thinking a lot lately about the obstacles that keep us from attaining our highest selves. This topic was timely. Thanks for asking.

    And thanks everyone else for the kind words.

    It’s usually ourselves that keep us from that attainment.
    The ambient light on the man is perfect. This is a great concept and illo! I can see it in a magazine.
