I suppose that you can say that extreme Sorrow can be linked to Pain. But, I have a seperate "bird" for Pain: [link]

Brilliantly simple and powerful. I see the northern lights in this one, and a great sense of spirit. Congrats on a well deserved dd.

cooley In reply to Illucieon [2006-01-11 03:58:35 +0000 UTC]

Wow, with all the comments I've received, I have not had a mention on the Northern Lights. I live in Alaska and see them often, and now when I look closely at my piece, I can see it too! Excellent observation!

Illucieon In reply to cooley [2006-01-12 03:19:49 +0000 UTC]

First thing that popped into my head. I see them here too and have always been fascinated and profoundly moved by them. Great to see someone capture such a wonder so well...even unintentionally!

I also have to thank you for taking the time to visit my gallery and even give me a fav, with the tons of mail I'm sure this has generated. Such consideration is rare and greatly appreciated. Keep up the fantastic art!

cooley In reply to Illucieon [2006-01-12 04:25:07 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Yes, my goal is to try to thank most everyone who took the time to look at my work yesterday. I don't get a lot of attention most of the time, and I always make time to thank people for the comments they leave on a regular basis...So being that this is a special event, I'm still very appreciative of the attention and am thankful!

very fluid, and the colors a amazing. I love the bird's eye and the contrast of the light bird on the dark background. Well, dark-ish. I wouldn't have labeled it Sorrow, how ever, "Innocence," or "Hope" but not sorrow.

each of the birds in this series are wonderfully rendered, but I like the emotion in this one best. Fear is wonderful too! that eye, those wings--it's a little ivory sear of sadness. brilliant.

I could really relate to this today. I just sent my son to full time day care and it's like ripping your heart out and letting other people hold it. Bah! Your piece is very moving. Beautiful.

Aw, I don't know what that must feel like (I'm not a mother) but I know the house must be quiet and sad when he's not around. Thank you for commenting on my work.
