Through The Past To The Future

16”x24” Mixed Media (Airbrush and Ink)
She looked through to her past, remembering, contemplating, holding it close to her. One day…she looked deeper…deeper still and she knew it was time to let it go. She released her past…and watched as it flew far away from her…to it’s own future…to it’s own place wild, open and free. Having let it go…she is now free, having looked through the past and on to the future. – By Carrie Glenn

Exquisite travel…
to the impossible dream..
yes…someone comes..
and tries to make us return to his or her back pagges..
and we find that it is not our reading…
And the future is hard to see…
just impossible..
So… she is there… seeing….behind the window..
unmoving… waiting..
while the lanscape of her background is fading in moisted dreams.
Rosa (I repeat.. exquisite..)

Thank you so much for your words….for seeing the deep and the profound…in my work. Take care! ;D

This is an interesting piece. It has a rugged, yet classic victorian feel to it. The colors are done very well, and the blue tint adds a nice touch to the image. Again, as all your work, it has such fine detail, and many points of interest. The picture, inside of a picture, of this picture really is a unique focal point in itself. My only critique would be that the main subject, the woman, is very close to the center of the image. But in this particular image, I don’t think it detracts from the image as a whole, as it does in some cases. I think the parrot balances that, and allows the eye to take in, and appreciate the mood, and depth of this image. This is really fine work Carrie!
I enjoy looking deep into your images, and appreciate the hard work you put into them.
You are a true asset to this community, and I’m very proud to be your friend.
I can tell your artwork is bridging the gaps of international peace.
Of course, alot of the credit goes to Redbubble, but it’s all the artists that are the real ambassadors. Together, we can all make a positive contribution to world peace. One picture, and one friend at a time. May peace be with you!
