Artist's Comments

"Enlighten the people, generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like spirits at the dawn of day."

I'm purposing you a challenge. Why did I call this picture "Nineteen"? It wasn't just because of the harmony produced by the alliteration... Full view may be required to discover my intentions.

Model is my friend Carla.

I have no idea if I’m even close, but I’ll try answering your question. :)
I think you called this picture “Nineteen” because the window on the left is numbered 17, so logically it would follow that model is now at window number 19. I would say it can be a place on her life’s road, maybe she’s 19 now. And these ruins could mean that life is a tough road, and the windows can be symbol of happyness on that road. :) So, am I close? ;)
Great picture by the way! :thumbsup: :)

I shall tell you a great secret, my friend. Do not wait for the last judgment, it takes place every day.

:clap: Very, very, very well guessed! You touched exactly the point! Nineteen is the number that logically follows the seventeen and eighteen written in the previous windows. As she is placed at the nineteenth window it means that's the place where she'll be enlightened, in spite of ruins, in spite of the massive destruction... And the windows are the way to happyness, indeed.
I loved how you realized it so well. :love: I would say perfectly!
Thanks, thanks and thanks again for all the support and wise comments! :hug: :bow:
And by the way... I love your new ID and avatar! ;)
