Description Yes,
From the inner series of traumatizing mind warps.

Inspired by the written forms of perceptions and perspectives of others. Even from persons of long ago.
As,
Prometheus Bound;

Prometheus (alone). O holy Ether, and swift winged winds.
and river-wells, and laughter innumerous
of yon sea- waves! Earth mother of us all.
And all viewing cyclic Sun, I cry on you,_

Behold me a god, what I endure from gods!
Behold, with throe on throe,
How wasted by this woe,
I wrestle down the myriad years of time !
Behold how, fast around me,
The new King of the happy ones sublime
Has flung the chain he forged, has shamed and bound me
Woe, woe! to-day's woe and the coming morrow's
I cover with one groan. And where is found me
A limit to these sorrows?
And yet what word do I say? I have foreknown
clearly all things that should be,
nothing done
Comes sudden to my soul; and I must bear
What is ordained with patience being aware
Nessesity doth front the universe
With invincible gesture. Yet this curse
Which strikes me now I find it hard to brave
In silence or speech. Because I gave
Honor to mortals, I have yoked my soul
To this compelling fate. Because I stole
The secret fount of fire, whose bubbles went
Over the ferule's brim, and manward sent
Art's mighty means and perfect rudiments,
That sin I expiate in this agony,
Hung here in fetters, 'neath the blanching sky.
Ah, ah me! what a sound!
What a fragrance sweeps up from a pinion unseen
Of a god, or a mortal, or nature between,
Sweeping up to this rock where the Earth has her bound,
To have sight of my pangs, or some guerdon obtain.
Lo, a god in the anguish, a god in the chain!
The god Zeus hateth sore,
And his god hate again,
As many as tread on his glorified floor,
Because I loved mortals too much evermore.
As of birds flying near!
And the air under sings
The light stroke of their wings,
And all life that approaches I wait for in fear.
~Elisibeth Barrett Browning, 1859

This is so beautiful. The colors remind me of an underwater scene, but it's obviously terrestrial and it's.. just great, lol.

Thank you so much for your nice words. You sure made me feel good. You build up my confidence.
I hope to upload a larger file to DA prints soon but my computer has been freezing up again. A little bit ago I did some deleting of things I don't need on it, inorder to free up some memory. I may give it another go tonight. I'm trying to create a larger image for prints. This painting was stolen and all I have is a Photograph to work from.

A bit better. Though I have been resting up for work. I was crippled up in my hands for a couple of days. I got the Chilis checks finally, and paid most my past due bills with it. It went quick. I did not sell any art on ebay, but they still charged me 24.95. And I got a free hacker to lock me out of my account + a shinny new spyware. Sorry I type very slow. Bare with me. Clickity ..................click........................click.

Some punk sent me an email asking if I could ship to New Jersey and had a Reply button to respond back through ebay. It was not an ebay page. But I allowed his bug in my commuter some how via email.
I had a bad feeling like something was wrong (my computer got real slow) so I inquired through security at ebay. then a day later ebay emailed me 3 times stating my account had been compromised an that I should change me ebay acc# password, and also myPay Pal password. They assured me that my bank account info was secure. When I tried to get in my ebay account i could not that ass had changed my password. so I had to go through verification with ebay and finally it was resolved. I closed my ebay account and informed them I would never use ebay again!
