Superb work Ash.

Great one Ash!!
I’ll see what I can do. :)

You sure are a person who cares.

this is so cool and I like the hand

Bravo Ash – very relevant to me at the moment.

Outstanding work Ash!

I’m sorry to hear about your lose, I have never felt the pain of losing someone I love but I think about it everyday and I hope when I do feel it I have the strength to carry on.

anyway it’s a great and important message, I have noticed there has been a resent rise in suicides being reported on the news, but I never realised it was so bad.
I doubt I can do much in spreading the message(I am not a people person) but I will offer any help I can, just ask

Sorry to hear you are dealing with the loss of a loved one. Glad you are able to start to heal through your art.
Amazing piece, and even more amazing message. Suicide is such a travesty and really does affect so many people. It has been in our family too, and it’s devastating for those trying to come to terms with it.
Thanks for helping to spread the word.

Wonderful frame, love it

love it.. great title as well!

As a depression sufferer(not as bad now) I can totally relate to this image… The dark clouds that surround me are starting to clear but the years following my fathers death were horrific. I even picked out a tree that I would use to end the pain. It was my children whom, I was convinced would be better off without me that finally pulled me through.
Your images are outstanding and the message that is attached to them are filled with an honest raw emotion and i am so glad that I found your art on RB.

deep stuff, brilliant however :)

beautiful work

I kept seeing this pic, it kept drawing me in, but i wanted to look at it last, for some reason i knew it would be distracting and overwhelming, and i wanted to look at your other artworks too.
i’m glad i did because
I’ve just spent the last ten minutes staring at this, lost in thought.
Its a beautiful image, tragic and heartbreaking.
The subject shouldnt be taboo, I appaud your efforts in trying to bring the issue to light.
Suicide touches so many.
This image here of yours, has bought me to tears.
thanx for posting it.
I hope you are healing!
I’m sorry i cant articulate what i want to say at the moment properly,
All the best to you and your loved ones!

That is truly a great image. Great posting!!!! Good for you!!! I have had to deal with it also, a long time ago. :)

so incredibly emotive .. and i knew that by the picture alone .. without the title.

awesome picture….

Perfect picture

beautiful

“Men are never convinced of your reasons, of your sincerity, of the seriousness of your suffering, except by your death… but you kill yourself, and what does it matter whether they believe you? ... you are not there to to see their amazement, their contrition (fleeting at best), to witness, according to every man’s dream, your own funeral. In order to cease being a doubtful case, one has to cease being…”

Beautiful and powerful image. The quote is from Albert Camus, and it jumped into mind when I saw your picture.

I thought I recognized the words you
quoted so beautifully.. what a clever man
he was..I take that as a huge compliment
for you to think of a Nobel prize winner
while viewing my work.. Thank you!

Thanks for this… I was almost a teen suicide statistic and its good to know that there are those who care and want to raise awareness as much as I do. Your work is amazing.

Nice composition image-wise.

I love the crow and the hand.

I love your darkness Ash. So very like my own.

powerful work

i absolutely luv dis image, and yeah its real sad wen life gets way much to handle and the only way out seems death.

Sooooo sooooo soooooo wonderful!!!

I hope you raise at least some sort of awareness, I unfortunately come across them after they have done their sad act. Good image !
