When an image represents an artist's feelings, you get it. Even if you don't understand it. The Repression Of Frustrations by *oz-haver is a wonderfully surrealistic piece boasting a dreary yet colorful palette. The finer details are what really makes this piece compelling, from the stark detail in the girl's figure, to the way field of forget-me-nots fades back and blends in with the horizon.

Description

The Repression Of Frustrations: Of How I Learned to Sing in Silence.

I made this piece merging various aspects of my life into the characters and the background. I don’t wish to talk about the issues publicly… but no, it isn’t just a pretty picture. =D

But, I can say a thing or two about the other elements/symbols. The girl’s name is Morgan, which I think is a nice in-between sounding-name of Morgana and Morrigan. The flying thing is the Mikumiku… (don’t ask where I got this name from- to those who know me better it isn’t a stranger). The small blue flowers are Forget-me-nots. The *other floating islands are either alive or dying. The rest... I leave open to interpretation…
