Giant Column Family

The largest of this series, Column Family is a study in size depicting 2 Giant columns, one of which is too large for the canvas and a cluster of baby columns nestled safely in the shadow of their apparent parents. A rainbow in the background gives a sense of scale to the image and a river which seems to start from nowhere or an accumulation of water condensation on the side of the mother column symbolizing the female lactating to nourish her young.

I wonder if your inspiration came from an industrial landscape for this one. It reminds me of factory chimneys but with more pleasing colours. Excellent work. Some smurfs fishing might add a wee bit of humour.

Artist Reply: Well thank you so much bianca(s) (I don't know if you meant to send that comment 8 times but I'm not complaining.) Positive feedback is what makes trees make a sound when they fall in the woods. ;@)

Awesome again R. R, very interesting concept of parenting, fantastic work!

Artist Reply: Thank you again, Cathy. Honestly, when I start these paintings I have no idea what they mean. I just get the picture stuck in my head and it doesn't go away till I paint it. Then I figure out what it means.

Where is this place, who cut them!! Nice idea, beautiful. Speechless.

Artist Reply: In a cortex of mine, not sure which one. They formed that way naturally, some reach up out of the planets atmosphere. Some are so big, they have there own gravity and you can walk straight up them. Thank you, thank you and again, I thank you
