Description

This is by no means meant to be a sermon or a debate. :) I was just pondering over a few things, one of them being Fate versus Free Will. The condensed version: I equate Fate to potential. My potential (Fate) will be determined by my choices (Free Will). I believe we are all put here with an equal chance in life to realize our own personal utopia. We're each given different gifts and tools to work with and the choice of how to or even whether or not we use them. We're also given the gift of obstacles to overcome. Working with what we have, we make choices. The choices ultimately determine our path in life. Each one adds something to us. Each one leads us to our fate. Sometimes our personal choices are not ultimately what is best for us. We may know that at the time, or may not but we make them all the same. I imagined a Guardian Angel -- one who can see the whole road before us, who knows what we *can* achieve by making the right choices -- would feel to watch her charge take the wrong path on the fork in the road and this image was born.

the wings are incredible, as are the colors and lighting. very nice work lisa. the lighting/shadows on the arms and legs dont seem to match the rest of the image, however - they seem to be lit by a white global light while the rest of the image is lit by yellow omni/spotlights. cheers, -gabriel
