"Heavy" collage on cigar box lid
Heavy...ok so I chose the literal interpretation. I just read a trilogy of books my 10 yr-old recommended called Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Fun books for the 10 to 12 set.
I must have Greek Myths on the brain, an image popped into my head of Atlas holding up the earth. I know the story he's holding up the heavens, but he's always drawn holding the earth isn't he? Either way, a good example of carrying a heavy load.
I see being a parent is similar, we carry so much on our shoulders.
Oh and the egg is cut from a book on tax law. I think this page was talking about corporate capital gains. That's heavy or maybe just boring!!! *grins*

another nice painting and I like the thoughts behind it--esp the tax paper......
It's great how the brain processes information to give inspiration.
Wonderful
Nice illustration, I love the pose on the bird, it makes my back ache. And I really like the textures. great job.
If that bird laid that egg, now that's a burden. Wonderful work.
Very, very nice. I love the colors.
Great work! Love this illustration and your excellent use of colour.
It's all so true, the parenting metaphor and the financial metaphor.
i love this!
