Description
A young boy holds onto two giant feathers that he has used to fly above the clouds. His eyes gaze downward, taking in the heights he has reached. Some people who have seen this work in progress mention Icarus, who flew to close to the sun. Others have heard the title and ask if he has passed and is ascending into heaven. The whole fantasy of flying has always captivated my thoughts. There is a certain fearlessness tied to this image as the young boy, in his rag tag clothing seems oblivious of the heights he has reached. May we all go so far!

What a GREAT galley you have Tom. This work with the hands holding single feathers above the sea really got me going. Love, love this and all your artworks. F/L.

Thanks, Randy. I don't visit comments very often because I don't get very many of them!
