Pain from within
By kimded

Sometimes the greatest hurt and pain in our life comes not from without but from within our own selves. It is fed by events outside our control, but its pain is rooted deep inside. If we do not deal with it the thorns of pain tighten around us, suffocating us from within.

Lovely piece. Great color choice and technique. I love the position of the figure, it's almost as though he (she? it?) is allowing himself to be ensnared by his own hurt. I love the way the thorns, while wrapping around the figure, are not wrapping so tightly that he cannot get away. A great commentary not only on how we create our own pain, but that we can also free ourselves from our pain.
Unless I am just totally off. In which case, beautiful work.
