Reflect



“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.” 

Mark Twain



This time I was inspired by the story of The Man Who Planted Trees (L'homme qui plantait des arbres). see here
Elzéard Bouffier, the protagonist, wasn't definitely a man who was on the side of the majority....

    That's a great quote. And I very much liked The Man Who Planted Trees, too.

    That is one of my favorite short films. And you know, I have always been the square peg trying to fit into the round hole. Well, to be honest I don't try to fit anymore. Nice art, Arty.

    I haven't read the story either (yet) but the illustration itself is very strong and raises your curiosity. Great!

    I Love how the space fluctuates from dimensional to flat, all in one image.

    What an absolutely beautiful, intriguing piece! I need to study it some more. The colors and textures, the faces, the trees, all woven together in such and unexpected and unusual way. Wow!
