Description
"Everything is complex and everything is simple. The rose has no why attached to it, it blooms because it blooms, has no thought of itself, or desire to be seen. What could be more
complicated than a rose for someone who wants to understand it? What could be simpler for someone who wants nothing? The complexity of thinking, the simplicity of beholding."
- Andre Comte-Sponville

Woah, some deep thoughts there. Very true words though. This image is perfectly suited to them. Complex if you try to analyze it, but simply beautiful if taken as a whole.
I am simply beholding, an amazing piece of art..... Glad to see you back!!!!!
nice work, interesting narrative.... but does not a flower (rose) exist to be seen by the insect world, for pollination, to keep the species going?
Excellent original artwork! Fantstic attention to details!!!
Zoren, all forms of life are born, grow & reproduce, then die. As far as we know, the human species is the only one that asks the question "why?" & requires a "purpose", a "reason to live". And from that questioning comes complexity...
Another great piece. The palette on this is a pure visual feast. Well done!
