Roots

we should plant roots that allow our inner child to soar, not those that trap us in conformity. Thanks for this!

WOW Jeremy, you describe this better than me, thank you! Am not very articulate so I always resolve to visuals when I need to communicate something abstract, while hoping it get through.

Jeremy does seem to have a good nack at that doesn’t he. Even though I’m his sister I am sadly lacking in articulate descriptions and like you, I rely on visuals. I really like this one.

O! hey that looks really groovy really rebellious stuff. Makes one feel proud to be unique.

What a splendid piece of art this is. Thought provoking to say the least. A+.

this is brilliant to say the least!...sorry Darren A++

Sleepy: Yeah, its very tiring to be like other people might as well be different =P

Darren & Shanghai: Wuaahhh… thank you!! how flattering, never got A++ before LOL. and I was quite happy with B =P.

Love the colours in this….. very nice. would be suitable for many products i thinks.. Great jobGrrL!

I’ll raise you, shanghaiwu. Make that A+++. :-)

Great work.

I love the Masculine/Feminine aspect to this too. :) And, for me there is even a hint of Industrialization in there. :) Oops. I’ll hush ;)

Thank you again for the comment guys! And Craig feel free to interpret it however you want, that’s the nice thing about metaphors ^_ it can be whatever you want it to be!

At first I just loved the image – then I looked closer and understood it’s meaning and it made my heart soar. To me this illustration is what RedBubble is all about, letting the creative child out.

Damn, how`d i miss this?...So good, so though provoking…all i like to see is in there.

preggers with meaning. this would make a cool epitaph.

Beautiful. The colours, the imagery, the message…. It all works for me.

WAAAHHH Thanks for all the comments guys!

Also I did a colab with kathleen using this image, check it out here

the response you have received tells it all, great work

It would be difficult to send the message any better.

I love how you’ve worked this, so many things to see and explore in one piece!

This image really spoke to me – child trying to break free within the rigid structures of society.

Thank you very much Mren, Infinity and Kdiemer, glad to know that the image was well communicated =D

VBS {Happy Dancing all round} :) :) :) Thank you so much Kooky :) :) I got this in the mail today and it is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) Can’t wait to hang it somewhere where EVERYONE will see it and talk about it :) :) VBS Mwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Uwaaaahhhhh so that was YOU!!! XD (rolling around on the ground, kicking and screaming with joy!!)
Thank you so much Craig!!! muach muach!!!

Hehehehehe Yeah, twas me :) Wasn’t much but I just bloody LOVE it and it looks bloody AWESOME here in front of me :) :) VBS {{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}

LOL glad you are happy with it, havent seen it printed myself =p
HUGSSSS from here too XD

Your stuff is amazing. So original. I’m still new to RB but you are definitely opening my eyes to the graphics world.

oh wow… thanks Diane, that is sooo flattering, glad you like my works ((blush!)) =P

all of the above and then some – your work is amazing.

hey Thanks Mel =D

Hi, I’m new here, but just wanted to add how much I like this image. I see where everyone has come from with their interpretations, but it sparked me in a different direction. I see the pure soul of nature being torn away for the poisoned interest of corporations. But I’m a biologist LOL.

Good Point Damian =D and WELCOME!!
Thanks for that, yes, it can mean a lot of things depending on the person, I think I had a very vague and abstract idea of what exactly I wanted to tell, which is why it is easier to put it down as an image.

love the fact that the childs tree seems to be inverted, like it’s turning convention on it’s head… like to see more of that. very profound Kookylane! :)

I love this image, kookylane

THank you Marlon and Alice =D
Profound eh? hohohohoh…

I just adore this Kooky. So many contrasts working in unison: adulthood and childhood, dark and light, rigid and flowing, aged paper and clean fresh lines, symmetry and chaos, having roots take hold, and holding on to your roots, heavy and weightlessness, repetition and uniqueness. I just can’t look at it enough.

OOOhhhh thank you Shygrrrl! Glad to know you like it, I LOVE your works too (but you already know that =P)

Great image. To me it says ‘Don’t let the roots of conformity pull your down and restrict you – take control, see what grows, and be liberated doing so’.

Did I tell you ….....

I LOVE THIS!!!! :P :P :P VBS

Hahaha YES man You DID!
Several times, you even got one LOL

Thanks Craig! trully appreciate it to know someone else love my baby =P

fantatic!

Your work is astounding, simply love this for so many reasons, really admire this.

This one is different, and nice too.. reppetitive forms often find their way into art and in many instances works well, just don’t get Too carried away with that either, but this one is Great!! good work!

absolutely amazing work!
very surreal…i love it!
i admire your style! :)

Thank you NICOLE!

Lisadee, Plasmatwin: Oh thank you so much, how very flattering XD!!

Dragoncat: Yeah, i do like repetition, glad to know i didn’t overdo it in this one =P
Thanks for the feedback man!!

Did someone steal this idea from you? I saw a tshirt design with this very tree baby….

Wow, this is really beautiful.

Fantastic. Being articulate, either visually or verbally, is a gift. It gives a piece of work “wow”. You’ve got it with this one. I love it. (my work is still aiming for WOW; hope I find it.).
