No name for this one, but I was in a bad mood one evening, and decided to play in Photoshop. This is the result, and I am monstrously happy with it, if for no other reason than that it broke my dry creative streak. It is also one of my first really successful attempts at 'painting' in Photoshop. But it still is full of my trademark techniques, that is, gradients, layers, and filters, particularly polar coordinates, which really saved this piece. I can only hope that the subtle effects show in a tiny jpeg.

This is very beautiful...It looks like an angel holding some sort of glowing bauble. Wish I had photoshop...

This is a very beautiful piece of work. It reminds me of the Northern Lights with the woman figure, possibly an angel, holding "the one true light" that leads to eternal bliss. Very beautiful.

I think this is Lisa... in the cold, barren landscape of imagination... holding the beginning of a new creation... the seed of a masterpiece... the light of inspiration.

Thanks for sharing. I like this the more I look at it.

Wow. I can't paint in Photoshop. I can only collage and build on existing pics. Then again, I can't paint. I must say, I think I prefer your visual stuff even to your writing.
This one reminds me of the snow sculptures at this big winter festival that we have every year in Canada. To me, it's sort of a symbol of balance: Ice holding fire. Lovely.

Puts me in mind of the Virgin Mary holding onto, or impregnated with baby Jesus.

Hey, I've just been poking through you gallery again - And I have to say I really love this piece. To me it's truly a Madonna rendition, but instead of a holy infant, she is holding a glowing ball of light. I find that really awesome!
