Addiction and surrealism - 3rd ArtStyleArt Contest - 'Alice'
Alice, Acrylic and spray paint on canvas, 30''x40''
This painting is about being lost in a labyrinth, addicted to the conjurings of the mind.
The story of Alice in Wonderland has sometimes been compared to one long acid trip endured by a young girl - I painted prolifically whilst experimenting with psychedelics, and this painting encompasses a feeling of being a helplessly exposed during this journey, grasping for answers in a nonsensical world.
I would love to hear your interpretations of this painting.
nice....I like it
Thanks! Stay tuned for more :)
I like it.. Makes me curious.. The gate the rabbits.. Seems sexual fantasy wrong /forbidden pleasure.. conflict around pleasure...
Hi @secter! Interesting analysis, you've picked up symbolism of the gate and the rabbits, and some sort of conflict. Who are some of your favourite painters?
Van Gogh Picasso bill Reid..
Fantastic!
Thank you @aksinya!

Fantastic painting my friend, may be like Alice in chains.
Hey @rajwrit :) Thank you I'm glad you see something in it. Funnily enough I was listening to quite a bit of AIC whilst painting this! My favourite songs are 'Again', 'Over now' aaaand probably 'Dirt'. Do you have faves?
First song I listened to was 'Dirt , then completed the whole album. It was different experience. I like most of the songs in the album 'Alice In Chain' , I could listen to Over now in loop whole day . @throughwindows
Wonderful artwork, upvoted and following you 🙂
Thank you @fleur I hope you see more you like during our steemit friendship! Having a look at your blog now.
