I am thrilled to have gotten to do this piece for so many reasons...
It really means a lot to me that people have this much faith in me.
This was a spur-of-the-moment, transforming energy to a visual form,
watery, healing, spiritual kind of piece. :)
Therapy of sorts.
I'm thrilled with the progression of this.
I love it when things just 'happen'.

This piece was awarded:
2nd Place Best Male Sleeve
