Artist's Comments

I know I can't get there... I know she might not even see me... but I won't give up, I don't know how, but I'll reach her!
And so he kept running, praying and wishing that somehow she would look at him and come down for him...

-------

Well well, this image actually has a meaning. I got the idea of the flying island from a famous photomanipulation I saw here on DA. But I had this idea long time ago, and finally managed to make it.

The meaning of this artwork, at least for me, has something to do about relationships. You know, when you like a girl, and you cannot feel complete without her, so you start running after her, trying to get to her... but you just can't... she's so far away, she's unreachable to you. However, she can come to you, if she wants... but, will she come down for you?

Well, I'd also like to know what you people think when you see this artwork. It's always interesting to know what is the "impact" of my works on other people.

Hope you like it.

I really like from the floating rock on up, i dont really like the person jumping the fence, i think it takes away from image, but from the rock up i think is really impressive

98% of Deviants don't know the difference between "your" and "you're." If you're one of the 2% that wants to punch 'em, put this in your sig.

Quite interesting, it makes me think of one of these dreams I had. The only thing I would suggest is make the floating rock's color a bit warmer, so it looks like it is more nautrally in the picture, the color doesn't suit the yellow light or grass well. The grass is so yellow on the bottom, but it barely has any color on the rock. Unless you wanted it that way.
