Artist's Comments

*Title taken from the Pink Floyd song, of the same name.

I think the idea may come across clear on it's own, but in case I'm wrong:

The theme surrounds the relationship between alienation and technology (more so the computer). I felt "The Wall" was a suitable comparison considering the symbolism used within both the album and the film.

12x6", acrylic on canvas

I like it... you're use of symbolism and metaphor in you're paintings is very well done, in my opinion. The only problem I see with is is that it was hard for me at first to realize what the monitor was supposed to be- mostly, I'm sure, because I'm not used to seeing them from thins perspective, but possibly partially due to the odd coloration? I don't know, but this is a very good painting, I adore you're style as usual.

This is fantastic! I love the feel and the colors and I would love to grab those little trees and take them home. Although I really didnt get that it was a monitor as well, but still lovely piece. I always love looking forward to your new pieces.

Seems no one can tell it's a monitor? Not sure why because all I can see is a monitor... But, I suppose everyone thinks differently anyway.

I modeled it after my own computer -- put it upside down, changed the colour to make it pop. Oh well, as long as it comes off as being something technological, than I don't care, haha ^___^

5 years of practice and non-stop painting action ^___^ I also get new ideas/images everyday which I want to turn into paintings, so I'm always working on multiple projects ~

I'm a little obsessive, hehe.
