I was asked to write about my picture in the gallery.

It was developed from a simple tutorial for a waterfall but the there was the idea for this picture.

The Dreamer, eyes closed, sinking in the waters of his mind. The unknown of the world and the beauty of the waterfall unseen.

Please tell me what you think about the picutre.

I'll try to repost it here in the discussion.

Doesn't it remind you of the statue in the ghost story where all of the action seems to take place? Thanks Feendrache lets see what the others think.

Wonderful picture, Feen. Reminds me of the asian saying "the softest thing goes through the hardest thing."

It doesn't "speak" to me the way I want it to. I find myself trying to figure it out. Maybe that's what art is...making one think. At first, though, I thought there was a deformed frog on the left, but it seems to be a female (with breasts that stick straight up in the air...grin). Nooooo, the boob would be black, so.... I dunno, maybe it is a frog. But I can't figure out what a frog has to do with the scene. Anyway, there is a statute in the water that appears to have moss or lichen on it. SO, it's been there a while. So maybe it means frogs have taken over the world...like a weird version of "Planet of the Apes". I kinda like the picture, so don't think I'm making fun of it. I just don't understand the message if there is one. Perhaps the frog is distracting me. DARN frog!!! BTW, that's a pretty nice waterfall.

Oh, now it's all on me, huh, TJ....hehe.

Now I feel bad. But it's still a great waterfall.

Lovely image. Well. The frog is a frog and I didn't give it a 2nd thought :). What did get my attention is the waterfall. Every time I look at it I see a head under the waterfall and that the waterfall looks like hair hanging over the face. Can't tell if the face is male or female though. Thanks for sharing Feendrache.

A Face under the waterfall, hmmm, yeah you're right, well it wasn't planned and you're right again, a frog is a frog :) Maybe Chuck should try to kiss it to get the woman ;)

Maybe the woman was escaping from an evil sorcerrer, who was a druid and turned her into lumber, but before the spell could work she jumped into the water and zap froze under the enchantment. The frog was an innocent bystander. This moss be the face...
