PERSONAL VISIONS

Set against a vibrant blue but cloudy sky, a woman wearing only a few small pieces of jewelry is framed by the V-shaped limbs of a dead tree. At first glance, it appears that her wrists are tied, but she's holding tight to the white cloth that wraps around each desiccated limb. As she leans forward with all of her weight, she stares off into the distance. The silky fabric she grips is covered in a pattern of thin gold ovals. Like her shoulder-length blonde hair, the ends of cloth are carried by the breeze. The skull of a bird hangs around her neck on a rigid chain. A similarly beaded chain wraps doubly around one calf, another an anklet on her back leg. Å rust colored star hanging by a string is tangled in the thin branches above her.

THE END OF NATURE V

The title is meant as a double-entendre of sorts, something I enjoy doing with my personal work. It is meant to suggest that there may be more than one level of meaning in a work, whatever series it may belong to.
