Wavering VisionsA poem by Bilal Anaim
Wavering visions of lost dreams
and hopes sink deep inside
Thoughts elicit emotions
a dark frown over the mind
Darkness, closing in on you
as Death creeps up behind
Gray existences queuing ahead
a question is always asked
Where does this road end
be not afraid of the bend
find the best shadows and
live within til you blend
I really like how solid the black it, and appreciate that you went with a matte black, as it makes the red pop.
In contrast to your other multi-colored pieces, this one only focuses on two colors, and emphasizes the shape and the direction of the splatter by using contrast.
This piece is rather dark in personal opinion, and seems bloody without actually having gore.
I love how the red both explodes from his body, and restrains him.
All in all this is a lovely piece, and requires some amount of thought.
I have seen splatter pieces before and thus lowers the originality. I believe this piece has a high impact, IT may have been dulled in personal opinion by my trolling of your gallery.
