Man I love your works. I just don't know how to respond to them though. Its really intruiging to look at your style and skills with oils. I'm not a very deep person, I have sometimes trouble with peering into meanings behind piece likes these. Or maybe its more that, maybe I'm afraid to speak my thoughts and sound like a fool. Oh well, time to break ground.

Its a wonderful piece, the title gets me thinking. I feel this expresses well the containment feeling a figurehead must feel. He can speak but his words and promises are empty and hollow. He's just there to please the sheep but unable to apply power behind his speeches. It's odd when I think about, so many people can watch a figurehead and be listen to them, yet doesn't give em power to break free, the puppet master still pulls the string and sews up his mouth. I'm not sure where I'm going with this, I think I've dug a hole. But I gave it a shot. =)

anyhow glorious work.

I love the glow you have in this...and the way the hair looks chiseled out of rock.
Another beautiful piece of work.
And once again, it is hard to imagine this was all done on only a nine by twelve piece of masonite!
Gorgeous piece of work once again! :clap:
