illustration friday topic 'sea'

I love the sea. I grew up in a Australia near the coast... The image is made using several different backgrounds I have created before. These fish are made with a PhotoShop brush [or rather stamp] I created a couple months ago using an image of a herring.

mind over matter

It's my belief that we are not actually here, what we see is tangible and appears to have some kind of order - for if it didn't we would go quite mad wouldn't we? Yet do we all see 'things' the same way? The tangible world around us is nothing more than a collection of interpretarions others have made and have passed on to us. It's the individual that tries to make sense of an interpretation - yet one can only understand an interpretation by making sense of it in one's mind - something exists for us, for we ourselves give it meaning.
