Artist's Comments

Something a little different, started as color and landscape practice. Originally it was going to be just a person running along the arch, but 3 days of listening to Unintended by Muse on repeat does weird things to one's imagination.

I didn't want to give it a more inspired title because it could be interpreted a number of ways. The crane could be captive in its shelter and unable to follow others, or it could be stretching its wings and leaving its nest into the sunrise, or any other explanation. I figure it's something best left for the viewer to figure out for his or herself. Also if you come up with an interesting interpretation, please don't hesitate to share it.

Beautiful, I love it :)

I like the way the black of his/her legs look kind of dead in a way. Like he/she's stuck in poisonus spiderweb, slowly killing him/her.

It reminded me of H.C.Andersen's 'The Wild Swans' at first but upon closer inspection it is, in fact, different. Amazing piece of art :heart:

I think a big scary spider should be lurking in the shadows, she looks more caught than breaking free. Anyway, it is really beautiful, and nice job on the mountains.

Well, today I was unfortunate enough to witness a thread full of spider horror stories and links to horrible pictures. So I am terribly, terribly concerned about the weblike stuff your crane seems to be caught in!
