    Toooo esoteric for my small mind! However the longer I study it the more I see its construction. Despite the busy background the framing of the face with the arm and shadow does draw ones eye to it quite nicely. Sometimes its fun to try "liquify" on the background.

    Great to get your comment Charles, thanks!

    Actually, I just snuck in an edit while you were posting - to define the elbow more.

    I take your point about the background, however I really did want the figure to have to *fight* its way back up into the image through the background.

    The Return


    See, they return...
    ah, see the tentative
    Movements, and the slow feet,
    The trouble in the pace and the uncertain
    Wavering!

    See, they return, one by one,
    As half-awakened...
    with fear;
    As if the snow should recoil
    And trembling in the wind...
    half turn back

    (...)
