Don, a really neat find here. Many of us, me included, would have missed this scene and the opportunity. Almost looked like some kind of script writing or hieroglyphics of some sort.
No thoughts for change at all.
Beautiful, Don. I really like the flow of this and the stark black and white. I am a touch ambivalent about the one element leaving the frame on the right, but I’m not sure what would be a better solution.
I love how you made everything look like it’s floating in the night. The bit exiting on the right could be more balanced with the bit exiting on the left by brightening the latter perhaps. The round “fruit” is a neat added touch.
Hi Don,
This is fantastic. I love the way the leaves and berry or fruit feel like they are floating in space. It gives the whole thing a very ethereal, symbolic quality. It almost feels like white calligraphy on black paper. If I were to try to interpret the symbolism of the leaves or lettering, it would be something like “forever unfurling.”
