Lightbulb When All Else Fails. . .

Here's a picture I put together last night. It's called Push Here To Restart. Sometimes when you feel like giving up, thinking everything is pointless, push a little harder. Just study it for a few minutes, see what symbolism and subliminal meanings you can discern. Feedback is welcome!

This is nice. For me it expresses the great concept of help being just a touch away. There's a great big fellowship beyond the button waiting to help when life, family, home, relationships is begining to flounder. The family unit if fortunate to have one will be with you along the way when ready to push the button. We need a reminder that help with is within reach and support is all around when you have the willingness to realize it can't easily be done on your own....just my thoughts for starters.

Thanks for the response, Chy. Help is within reach. There's a lot more to this image, but I don't want to give it away. Creating pictures like this helps keep me sober in a HUGE way.

lovely sharing midas. with a disease that causes such loss and destruction its inspiring to see creation.

i find creative works definitely keep me sane and alive and also give me a reson for life.

i see it as that james bond like button in his cars, when all else fails 007.
my hands are constantly over that button. amen.

Thanks utopia! I've done a LOT of artwork just since January this year. Most of my works are posted on my visual blog. Funny thing about this picture is that I don't remember the ripples being in the ice/sand dunes, and there are a couple ghost reflections too. It was really late (like 4 AM) when I stopped working on this one. I've been working with raytracing for about 5 years & this time I'm baffled. Hehehe. The family imagery, like Chy mentioned, really stands out. Notice how they're standing on their toes too?
