Thoughts behind the artwork...

This image is symbolic of my personal journey through alcohol addiction. In the Tarot deck of cards, there is one card that is typically looked upon with horror... The Tower. The Tower is symbolic of cataclysmic events in a persons life. All too often, it is a cataclysmic ill. However, with cataclysmic change comes the capacity for growth... a rebirth of sorts. In this image, I follow my path towards The Tower... regardless of the warnings at hand. Warnings that appear with greater and greater frequency.
