Thanks. When i was working on this the dissatisfaction with the result was mounting into a raging ball of frustration. At it's completion I almost through it into a garbage can. I don't know what stopped me. I got it home and looked at it and decided I didn't like it but it is a strong reflection of my place in life, full of disarrayed madness. It also reminded me that I always want to get over my liking or disliking a piece of art and strike up a dialogue between the piece and my selfless self and come to some sort of objective view.
