Wonderful image. Excellent!!!

Cass, if I had the power to change one thing for you, this would probably be it. I wish I could, but I can't. This is one disturbing image when you know where it comes from, there's such turmoil, such suffering conveyed here. Funny how it just makes me adore you more my friend hugest hugs

You've made it so beautiful, like peering through stained glass to an etherical world. The birds are flying.

I agree with Jim's sentiments and echo his wishes. I'd love to set you free of that pain, like the raven flying. Beautiful richness of colour and texture sweetie. huge hugs

To look at this hurt me Cassie!! It's so twisted and distorted and knowing where it comes from makes me mentally feel the pain!! I love the colors u used for this and that black bird is so full of meaning, being, to me, the pain trying to escape but being trapped in there! The crow is also a symbol of hope though...but is it a crow?

Thank you so much everyone, I really appreciate your compassion group hugs, but I'm wishing I hadn't put the source material there now as it seems to have 'tainted' what I see as quite a positive image. I see an apocalyptic underground city, water in the forground, fire behind the raven, a path leading under the pipes to it and the spinal cord is a big tree root. Thank you again for your support, I adore you all for it HUGS

wonder over wonder, you made . this one has deep choice of colors and strong design . its allways a wonder what you did Cassie !!! thanks that you made it and that you are a wonderful women too. hugs from spirits and souls your Gregor

Excellent work.....!! great composition and tone...love it

i really don't know what to say... i'm deeply impressed... more than this.. . touched... --- thank you cass...

Before I read anything you wrote I couldn't help but see towering strength in this image! The positive & glorious light that will be found in any darkness & the raven soaring on waves of energy. Amazing image Cass, full of darkness & pain certainly but also vibrant with hope, life & wisdom. Hugs backatcha ; )

looks like a beautiful dark forest with twisted vines & the raven flying by, luv the color, great use of the MRI... doesn't look painful but of course i echo the compassion for you hugz :]

You make beauty out of pain. like a ladder down in the depth of your being. Darkness, pain but also beauty and strength. Make me think of glass windows.

There is such a vastness here, the shadows and textures, and most especially the soaring pose of the raven, easily lending the impression of so much more expanding past the picture's edges. There is so much in the world that people don't see, whether because they can't or won't, that yet holds so much of importance in the halls of their existence. This beautiful picture makes me think of that. HUGS I love the use of purples, it's such a good colour for darkening things without making the scene sinister.

Makes me think various contradictory thoughts. Light and darkness, pain and relief, capturing, freedom... This is deep, and multidimensional scene to some inner parts of us, of the world. Wonderful picture!

Amazing image!! The colors are fanastic, I am overwhelmed by the richness of the teures and color.

Wow. That is all I can say Cassie. I cannot seem to collect myself enough to say any more than that.

Love the darkness and hidden detail you have me looking deep into this image. :0 )

boah - i stare on it for a long long while now - very intense piece - great use of color and textures, the very well rendered raven gives this more or less abstract painting the very special note - think everyone can take his own message from this piece of art - excellent job cassie, you are a real artist!!!

Now this is intense. There is so much to this image, the depth and gradation of colour that you have used is amazing. All this from an MRI? You da bomb, girl.

it's evocative. Too much.. too deep for avoiding me to shiver. Kisses sweet angel of light...and all my love :)
