A couple of you have refered to my wooden sculpture as a dragon fly. I like the analogy. It wasn't what I had in mind, but I like it.
The wooden one is NOT meant to be a dragon fly. I saw the "Wings" are the skeleton of leaves. The "thorax" a stem. the "head" is a sheathed fruit.
I was going to explain each piece initially, but decided against it. I'd rather have folks interpret them as they will. Knowing what I bring to a piece prevents others from bringing their own creativity into the experience.
Thank you all for your encouraging words!
I'm curious for the one person who recommended that I stop. They left no comment - is this a short term stop while I finish my degree or a long-term stop that they're requesting?
Analog - Thanks for letting me know your honest opinion, along with your potential bias. I'll be sure to keep up with some sort of art this semester. Though, my transcripts might not reflect.
Aberkok - yes, there are dimensions of meaning behind these. I've already divulged too much, though. Bring what you will and enjoy.
Doodlebird - thank you for your encouragement. I hope that the creativity doesn't run away.
