Description
Composed and rendered in Bryce 7.1 - Apophysis (transparent bg) for web at the right.Gothic Rose character by
Long time since I last did something of the sort. Again, enjoyed every minute of this composition!
Render time: 30hs 47mins
How did the dream from continue if it wasn't for the untimely waking up? This is my freelance story:
The sculpture-object's colours began to shift. The room gradually vanished and a strange scene replaced it, and there she was, Gothic Rose. The object's colours were imitating hers, a mystery.
_Time to leave, she said in a sweet musical voice but denoting there was no fooling around with her.
_Where, I asked.
_To what lies beyond the fractal web, as your time has come, she responded.
_Am I in some kind of a trip? Had no acid nor anything or is my mind playing me?
_No, silly question, I'll take it just for you being caught so off-guard. Are you unaware yet?
_Guess I understand, why so early when I have a lot of things to do in my life?
_ It's not in you to decide now, you well know why. Dig deep inside your mind and remember what you so many times wished.
Couldn't respond, she was right.
_Can I take my favorite music with me, I asked (these words sounded so stupid under the circumstances)
_Yes, your mind will image and listen to it as you never did before.
At this point, her still sweet voice became firm:
_As long as it's not Rap!
_Alright then, but are you the messenger or the destination?
_I can be both, it's your choice.
_How bad is beyond the web?
_Nothing more and nothing less than what you did in your life. You'll be in another plane of existence.
_Let's go then...
We broke the web stepping to the other side and YAY, I'm dead!
Hope some of you might take a little time reading this

So wonderful to see you back and your amazing artwork! It has only been 14 years that we have known each other, you know! That is longer than some people are married! 
Hope to see more of your creations, Sergio!

Thank you so very much dear old friend 
I'm presently busy on working, even if I retired last year, political activism and surviving.
By what I could gather, your life hasn't gone easy as well. Hope you are better now and looking forward to what your brilliant artistic mind can create. We both now that our creations are a reflection of the state of our brains according to the real life circumstances we are coming through.
All the very best!

Yeah, I don't post much any more. Hadn't done much art in a while. I have noticed that I miss it terribly but my heart just isn't in it any longer and I don't feel like I have gained anything over the years when it comes to progress. Just so much software I still can't figure out. Still do fractals from time to time but have actually been tickled pink at the response to my recent photo uploads. Going to get the Digital camera out and dust it off, I think.
Still married, huh? Cool. I am still single. Probably always will be.
Yeah, quite a bit of loss in my life, but we all end up suffering that, sooner or later. I just put one foot in front of the other, and keep going. I tell myself that nothing is stronger than a made up mind and I will not give up. I still struggle with depression but have been off the anti-Depressants for over 2 years and it is better than it used to be. I had suspected that some of the meds caused side effects that were as bad as the depression.
I journal a lot and keep a book of positive affirmations that sometimes are copied from other sites, some are my own affirmations that I have figured out from experience.
You take care and keep in touch!

Quite the same this side. Problem is that I know almost everything about the "DOS" in photography, but can't get around digital cameras. Surely I'm a state of denial about this gadgetry
Yep, despite all the serious problems we had years ago, still married AND happy, no matter the apparent contradiction below . No worries if you'll be single forever. Marriage is a serious thing and finding the right person is like an unlikely alignment of planets. It's about having kind of a symbiotic relationship, like a tight team, but without losing your individuality.
You are right, we must keep going even if in "auto-pilot". Really considered killing myself several times during the past couple of years, but the damage would be far worse than if I'm not in this world. Oh well, I've said it publicly!!!
The depression meds can cut both ways, so be careful and always read the small printing. Most doctors today only care about getting their share of what the labs tell them to do and following often deadly protocols. I should be under shrink treatment again, but always think WTF will they tell me that I don't already know?. Anyway, I've been taking anxiolytics for 12 years and it helps.
Please take good care! You are a special person and somehow we'll keep in touch, at least here at DA. As you might know, I'm quite busy in surviving and political activities. Argentina as it is now hurts you daily and, the attrition on our citizens is kind of a slow genocide under a civilian dictatorship.

I am so sorry that you have to live and confront that political thing every day! I can't imagine how hard that must be to live with, I truly can't.
Believe me, I hear you. I think when people get married the commitment to stay together no matter what, is what tells in the end. Every day is a challenge, in life, no matter who we are or what our walk is, I think. Life is so complex, so much going on, so many ways to fall and so many bad people in the world.
Stay safe!

Lea, why have you always leave brief but thoughtful insights in the right moment? It stresses my mind!
I do hear you also, guess if it wasn't for the distance separating us, we could create, like entrepreneurs, kind of a life learning academy. Both our experiences are so rich for good or bad, perhaps we could cover all bases!
Won't go much further now, but my country is being devastated in only about 2 years, 7 months. From a developing/advanced nation with hi-tech in several areas, human rights, social welfare, health, education, etc, etc, we fell not only into a neocon gov't but a neocolonial civilian dictatorship. This was schematically thanks to our local pimps and the intervention of Cambridge Analytica in the Dec.2015 elections (FRAUD!!!). Remember Facebook's scandal. As a patriot and political activist, can't wait for the 2019 elections. If we prevail, really don't know how we will rebuild the nation...though I have some ideas about it
All the very best dear friend!

I am pleased to know that I can say the right thing in not a lot of words at times, most of the time I ramble on and on. Well I worry about you, you know!

Honey, I ramble on a lot! But that is pretty common in people who live alone and don't actually converse much. We make up for lost time! LOL. I have always been a thinker, but we go back 14 years, buddy, so you know.
Oh yeah, I do much better than I ever did before, I completely got off of those meds and for most part feel like a new person. There were some really bad side effects that went along with them and some were for what I was taking them for. My doctor helped me get off of them gradually and it was pretty tough going the first year. It took about 8 months to lower the dosages and wean myself off of them. But I am not sorry.

Dear Lea, you can sometimes ramble a lot, OK, but there's always content in what you say, not just a bunch of meaningless words. Guess we are very gradually catching up. We've got a lot to say about our lives during these 14 years.
So glad you got rid of meds. The side effects can be mortal, at least, when you read the small letter. The labs just stay clean while the idea is not to cure you but keep you sick while they make business. I can say a lot about it first hand. Can you imagine eg. an anti-depressive which might cause you suicidal effects in blah blah % of cases?!?!
Take care and enjoy every moment of being this new person. You deserve it!!!

On the suicide thing, yes, I can imagine. Of course what I have to say is important, I would not talk, otherwise!

Seems like we are on the same league...if you don't have nothing to say, don't say it!
Most welcome and thanks for considering me a funny guy, considering the odds we are going through

Humor can be a life saver! Do you remember Robin, eryt? He and I still keep in touch from time to time on the phone.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No doubt humor is a life saver and I also frequently seek refuge in music. Sorry, I don't remember Robin at this moment.
Best regards Lea!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Music for me is a lifesaver as well. No biggie. There was you, Robin (eryt), Mally, and that other guy, Steve Zimmerman or something like that. Can't remember his name for sure. But we all commented on each other's stuff a lot.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep, we commented and talked a lot during those years. There was Anita (1arcticfox) too.

Yes, and she has been absent for years now. About 9. I don't know what ever happened to her. I went through my list here the other day and removed some that I knew had departed this life. I just hated to see their icons and know I would never see their art, or hear from them again. Had mixed feelings about doing it, but they are gone and life goes on...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I do know something about what happened with Anita. We've exchanged PMs every now and then (she was even worried about me!). Her very present status is unknown to me but fear it's no so good. Hope she's reasonably well as she is a wonderful friend. However, like you well said, life goes on.

I hate it that I don't know what happens to people. Ginny just dropped out years ago and I never heard from her again. Xantipia passed away and I didn't realize until I went to her page that she had. I always try to do Birthday images of my friends and watchers too but seems like any more I check and if they haven't posted in a year or longer I just unfollow them. Not being cruel but I am guessing for one reason or another they have gone on with their lives elsewhere or have just gone on. I miss her, and her work. Years ago she and I used to email each other back and forth and I know she had health issues back then.
I hope she is doing well too.

Sorry for the late reply. I'm too busy in political activities and surviving, as my country is in terminal shape...3 years long story.
Guess I understand you about people, but they change, be it for age, medical reasons, buying a life, different mind reasons or whatever. In the case of Ginny, I might have something to do with it but I really doubt it. I do hope she's well. We move on the best way we can. Sometimes, art is not the reason which mainly pulls us forward. It can be an entertainment an escape from a shit life or even an aspiring career.
All the very best dear old friend!
