A detailed version of the right diptych image. Originally based on the idea of Terror and Joy, I took some liberties with the theme to create a surreal and slightly autobiographical image.
The right image is an expression of joy or the transformation of fear into hope.
But don't take my word for it, i may have said to much.

Made in Photoshop CS the original print version is 12"x15" for a combined print size of 24"x15"

Quote in image:

Thank you to the resurgere team for providing three of the integrated textures and smoke:

All other images and textures were photographed and scanned by me.

Daily DeviationHope by ~ratpat13. Wonderfully surreal, and expresses so much emotion, just like he wrote "its an expression of joy or the transformation of fear into hope." (Suggested by =FreakyBabe and Featured by $chix0r)
