SciFi and Fantasy Art: Fledgling

Something I was working on a day or two before Christmas. This is a statement piece and obviously not a happy one. Dec. 2002 **I guess to be more specific because certain people interpret it the way they want, let me explain: it is a feminist statement. It is frustration I feel for oppression against women and children, not only here but around the world. It is anger I feel about female circumcision, about wife burning about certain religious oppression, sexual abuses towards women and children. It's a broad range subject also including the silencing of females, females banned from voting and other frustrations that bar the weaker sex and the young from making crutial choices. I'm sure most people with a clear conscience can easily see that.**

You put my common feelings into a perfect picture, now i have something to see in my mind's-eye when i get mad, thanks.

This is a beautiful (albeit sad) picture. It came as kind of a shock to me though because i didn't notice the scizors right away.

Beautiful, and sad, but it reminds me of the book growing wings because they cut off the mom's wings when she was little

This is a very powerful image that you have created. It is both beautiful and sad. Well done, you are truly talented in many ways.

:-) Audrey S. Totire replies: "Thanks..notice that I had to EXPLAIN the meaning? Just as you got some nasty comments about your drums I got brainless comments here too. You know, I think if more people take vitamin B-12 and load up on their Omega 3 the world would be a happier place, don't you think?"

I totally agree with Brian, powerful, beautiful and sad. Knowing the full intention behind it makes it an even more powerful picture. Hopefully, those atrocities will be eradicated in the future. And soon!

:-) Audrey S. Totire replies: "I gope you come look at my new picture when my ticket block is removed...it's like a bit of a continuation of the same piece. Thank you for a great comment!"

Nice. The wings, of course, representing her fredom are being clipped so that she cannot fly away, her inslavement. Her fredom stripped from her even though the wings remain as a reminder. Notice also that wings must be cut regularly. I am not sure how often but the feathers do grow back, this would represent the constant beating down of the weak. The one's with the scissors keep cliping the wings of the weak to keep them just that, weak. What is it they are so afraid of? Why would someone be so possesive? Wow, this piece says quite a bit, raises some interesting questions.

:-) Audrey S. Totire replies: "I appreciate this comment that you are seeing more than I could explain. It takes a very sympathetic soul to see all those things 2 (I think Birds normally get their wings clipped a couple times a year. Depends on the bird. Feathers are like hair--that's besides the point!) Thanks!"

yet you state "the weaker sex" take a look at the movement, women are taking things and running with them.

I am a man btw, and I just think that you might want to throw a supposed or some such word in there.
