Clever! It reminds me of the old adage 'Less is More' or in this case...'More than Enough'.
A very disturbing title for a equally disturbing painting that has left plenty to the tender mercy of our own no doubt disturbing imaginations.
Dark stuff indeed.^^

It's disturbing because it's hard to figure out what I'm looking at.

I'd like to take a degree in psychology just to understand you and your work! Other than that I can't say anrthing which hasn't already been said! Great work, well done!

Something dark, almost monochromatic. I love the subtilties in the choice of colours. Hum... subtilties. I should say obscurity. We're not sure of what we see; we're not even sure of what we think. The painting seems to hide a secret that is partly revealed by its title. Wow!

Very very disturbing.
And I've even more disturbed that more people aren't disturbed by it.

certainly an intriguing concept... but it's difficult for me to make out a lot of the details... it seems a bit washed out. i think it may be my monitor, or perhaps when you photographed/scanned it?

said ..."A lot of people want to ask for the meaning in your pictures. I think they know from the get go whats going on, its just admitting it to themselves that makes them uncomfortable."
I don't know if he's on the verge to understand you,
but I agree with the sentence,
and
I'm not that far of thinking that you're going even farther than surrealism ...
Another terrific piece of work

Very mysterious and evocative. I think the best thing about this painting is its richness of meanings with a minimum of symbols... and this is something you don't do very often... I'm trying to decide what I like better...

... I think I'm closer to understanding you because of this piece.
Most people's subconscious minds are raving beasts with very carnal motives. Its the concsious mind which restrains these impulses by complimenting a girl's dress instead of clubbing her over the head and dragging her to a cave. Yours is different in that you obscure the carnal root with even more subconscious imagery.
A lot of people want to ask for the meaning in your pictures. I think they know from the get go whats going on, its just admitting it to themselves that makes them uncomfortable.
In short: Great painting!

Hauntingly eerie.
Hmmm, that sounded trite but it was not meant to be.
Gigerian in an aspect, subject matter maybe, and mood possibly.

dark, disturbing, just my cup of tea... what's amazing to me is the soft, smooth quality you've acheived with acrylics.

I second the "Down in the Park" comment, very spooky stuff. Did Numan ever make a video for that song?

That's my favorite Numan song. I think there's only a performance video for it.

I actually heard the Foo Fighters cover before hearing the original. It was pretty good. Then Marilyn Manson decided to do a laughably overwrought version...

such an intresting angle, so we can't see straight-on what exactly this contraption is
but wow, the shadows and atmosphere are killer.

Wow ... considering it's essential nature, surrealism is a very difficult medium to master, from a visually philisophical standpoint. However, you seem to pull it off with solid proficiency on a regular basis. Needless to say, this one is once again, no different. Great work.
