I'd be interested in any interpritations you guys might have on this one.

thanx

This is my reaction to an article regaurding a catholic priest on trial for molesting and raping children for three decades under the protection of the church. The church spend roughly 3 million dollars paying off families in order to protect him.

This is really cool. My first thought is that this is the evangelistic wave that has been sweeping our country for some time now. If that's the case, then I really like the play on words in the title. "the flood." tee-hee-hee.

thanx for your comment. I picked the title for a reason, a flood is a very powerful metophore. But i didn't have the evangelistic wave on my mind at the time.
cool interpritation though, thanx!

Wonderful work lass. I love how you manage to make such a great impact (at least on me) with very simple means.
To me humanity is like a flood, an unstoppable and powerful force, leaving only destruction in it's wake. And when we have to reap what we have sown we turn to faith. Question is just, will you get an answer.

i think this is great. i like the whole style, like ink marks and very chaotic. i understand the following from this piece: a lot of extremist from a church that care more about rituals than about god itself, that are produced by some churches like a xerox machine copying idelogy brochures,,, they flood the town, cities, and countries not spreading their ideas but imposing them. somehow like the evangelistic wave Bleysofamber said.

thank you! I think the subject matter really hit a nerve for me, and it just kinda happend on it's own.
=] and i've been doing free association writing before i sketch,...it's helpful

I think that maybe i didn't load a big enough image for people to see the expressions on there faces., could you see them okay?


great interpritation! you'll have to tell me a bit more about this tao stuff sometime
