Thanks Render Man!! I'll be ok. I've never been a fan of waiting games. There are so many things I want to get started with abd this situation I'm in is a major roadblock. Once in a while it really gets to me, that's all. I'm always amazing myself with the images I can whip up with reflections. It seems to be a special nitch I've created for myself. I'm not alone though. I've seen some really beautiful reflective abstracts on other sites. The employ different methods than mine but they are no less creative and impressive for it.

Sorry to hear about your difficulties as but just remember you are not alone there are more than you know that have passed through similar experiences who have found the sunshine. While the colors in the abstract are dark there is still a beauty to be found. If you look closely you will note there is light amidst the darkness so I see rays of hope. It is amazing to me how you can create such an effect with mirrors.

Thanks, Horo!! The reason I've put up with so much abuse over the years is that.....how should I put this? My intelligence, imagination and emotions have always been more powerful than most of the people I've encountered. It's like I'm more 'Alive' than they are and this has drawn great cuelty from the more maladjusted unfortunates. I made the horrible mistake of blaming myself for it all, as if somehow I deserved being constantly hurt. Now that I'm no longer seeking escape through chemical distractions I'm in the process of shedding all the negativity from my past. Healing can be a vey painful process and that's why I ride out these dark moods. Eventually I'll be free of it all. I think perhaps this is the reason I'm being made to wait for a more independant life situation. I don't like admitting it to myself but I may not be completely ready for it. The Universe is wise beyond the understanding of we limited human minds. ;-)

I echo Rashads impression. Not nice as such, but interesting. Keep it up spektyr, there's always a bright side if you only look hard enough. Agreed, sometimes it needs a bit of imagination, too.

Thanks, Rashad!!! I've been struggling with some really screwed up inner feelings lately and I had to force myself to create something. Unlike 'Descent into Madness' this image really didn't really capture my feelings. My goal was to produce somthing dark and 3 dimensional. I accomplished that but I'm still all screwed up inside. I'm doing another one now that's not as dark but more spooky and disturbing. I still don't thing it's a release of my inner darkness though. :-( Don't worry about me, my friend. Just imagine being homeless and having to wait for this screwed up bureaucracy to do the right thing so you can establish a better situation for yourself. For me it's really frustrating and depressing. I've lived through worse so I'll be ok. The pendulum is in darkness but has to swing back into the light soon. :-)

Very interesting. I get the feeling of an insect of some sort. Very powerful contrasts.
