Those of you in Raster who've known me from the start should understand the significance of this piece straight off the bat, and the past that influenced a heavy amount of my artwork. This piece was a reopening of that door, a tap back into disturbing pictures I've stored away in that locked closet for years as a reminder of never to fall that far down the spiral again, and a glimpse of all the selfless red thrown around like it was paint. The first time in a long time I've used pictures of myself within a piece. And again, more integration of ink.

This is really nice, I think you managed to get your personal feelings or ideas out in such a nice graphic way. The red color goes so well with that subtle color of the sky and the eye travels around in a really nice way. And I really love that your hands are holding up this paper, it's a really nice touch conceptually and graphically.
Looks like a webpage layout, very nice. The attention to detail is excellent. The razor slicing the page is a great addition.

devian Thanks again Kenton, what I like about this is that I just got into the zone and pumped this out. Was a rehash of my past, and the razor was a last minute decision before finalizing the piece, to really hit the ideal home. Appreciate the comments :)
I really like this, you can see a wonderful progression shining through in your work. Everything is composed just so and fits together like a life jigsaw, with each part telling its own tale. Really great work mate!
Really like your work it's very striking. This is one of my favorites probably because of the colours and contrast, along with the fact that there is a lot going on. Really tickles the eye.
