The Surrealist V

"I guess surrealism has a draw for me because it's an unknown world.
It's a world of subconscious. Some things you can't really get your hands on very easily.
Things that are kind of nebulous and they feel like the're not completely formed.
You have to feel your way through that." -- Gotye

Surrealist art depicts dream imagery and archetypal symbols derived from the unconscious.
The surrealist employs collage aesthetics as a way to tap into the subconscious.

She is covered in blood, and around her lay bodies. Whilst the publication of graphic images has been a tough and much debated topic for some time - the very taking of such photos has sparked cynicism and unrest between many.

Time does not stand still, even though some moments make it seem so;
they never last. Life continues to be hectic and stressful and once again
I've fallen behind-er. Some day I will catch up, but not soon enough. I
will be out of town and out of touch for the next few days, so here is a
delicious display of beautiful, inspiring, wondrous and loved personal
favorites.
Deepest thanks to all my friends, watchers and random visitors.
Be well and never forget to seize the moment. See you all next week.
