stimulates the mind to ponder- how many are you planning?

thank you … I am glad ..
... I do not know how many will happen … I have some more ideas ...... but taking/looking up reference photos takes time …..

reminds me of dear Maya Angelou’s “I know why the caged bird sings” ... beautiful image that ‘says’ much…
annamora replied
... I do not know that … I will look it up … thank you very much for nice comment :)
annamora replied
ok ….. I do know Maya ….. I do not know the book ….
Michael Scholl
lovely! Colors are so sad, but there’s the anticipation a change in color, now that soul is free.
annamora replied
thank you Michael, I think this one I did not resolve much …. but i work intuitively and I might try another variation on the same … i was not sure how to deal with the cage … realistic or just suggested as an idea …. I chose the second way but I might try to get some good reference and work it out realistically …. don’t know yet :)
Lynn Moore
I’m letting this sink in and pondering – delicate, tender yet tension.
annamora replied
thank you Lynn … yes :)
Tama Blough
She is free to go, but often the question is, but go where? Nice work and quite thought-provoking.
annamora replied
thank you so much Tama :)

Anni Morris
Yes, he has imprisioned…not with a lock and key but with his mind…and she doesn’t know HOW to go, hasn’t the confidence to leave, rather a sad situation…but one many women can identify with…I am sure. Thoughtful work ~ Anni :)

deborah zaragoza
This is such a powerful piece annamora.
To me it appears she is loved but puts her ownself into the cage for some internal fear of love, or life or being rejected or if she were not able to stand on her own. The other hand seems to catch her if she falls and indicates to me someone wants to help if she does fail. The hand opening the door indicates ….come out and see the beauty in the world.
My interpretation only, of course. Excellent piece to involve the viewer into their own story plot.
WELL DONE !!!!
Love it !!!!!
annamora replied
thank you thank you so nice of you Deborah …. that was the intent ..to just suggest something – making it ambiguous …. I am glad it works … and i like your interpretation a lot :)
doreen01

Perfectly Poignant
annamora replied
- that is very good – thank you :)
yvonca
I love this one. You captured so much here and it grabs the heart and evokes such a strong response. Noble self-sacrifice for the loved one’s good? or fear of being free? Captured so long,that she dare not step across the threshold? I hope you are exhibiting this series.
annamora replied
Yvonka … I do hope to exhibit one day yes :) … but not until I have heaps of things to choose from … so definitely not yet :) ...thank you very much for your words about this one – very valued :)
GomesPereira
This is so much beautiful, Anna!
Beautiful work where the feelings and the soul play a dual game of freedom that is never completed…..Fantastic. GP
annamora replied
thank you very much Gomes :) ... I’ve wished someone would interpret this (and the rest of this series) like you just did … very appreciated :)
Andrea Ida Rausch
Wow, perfectly drawn! This is what I am not able to do, so I adore everybody who can, and you can for sure! Great!
