Artist's Comments

another gallery piece, definitely one of my favourite pieces and one of my least favourite photographs...if only you could see this in actuality...
ah well...

the concept was something about people focusing too much on time to the point where it takes over there lives and they lose sense of life...so in the overanticipation of death and the remaining time left, we waste the amount of time to be had...
ummmm...yeah...it sounds a lot better in my head...so lame typed...

it's been three years in the works, undergoing drastic changes when i finally learned how to really draw people in profile (the original rough was...bad...) and it may still have more to be done with it...who knows...
acrylic on board

WOW! So awesome! The concept is just as good as the art itself, which is freaking FANTABULOUS. :3

a brilliant concept. and the idea of all the clocks being set to the same time really enhances the drone aspect of the picture.

You say, look at me now. don't shut those dyslexic eyes. So your heart's a slow learner and those drugs are its disguise. Well, it's a clear costume, you might as well not try to hide.

Creepy, dark, and brooding with a subtle reverence to it all. It's like watching the twin towers fall years after it happened, i guess, but with less horror and mayhem. I hope that wasn't insulting, because I meant ti as a compliment. Really, a great piece of work.

I love your concept for this. It's very true but sometimes you can't help to fall victim to it.
