I feel trapped, physically, mentally and spiritually. I feel exposed but no one cares. I want out I want to be free. Fuck it, I am who I am and I want to let my art speak that way and not worry about pretty pictures and nice scores. This is me exposing myself and trying to accept who I am and embrace it. The title comes from Ozzy's song of the same name.

Well this image was a success, true the score sucks but the comments and fav were excellent plus a fantasy art gallery from Don, can't beat all that. Thanks everyone.

Pleased to discover this thanks to your 'Best of' entry. Another great image, the ceiling is going to crush you emotionally and you have no protection.
Why would anyone want you to crop the ceiling out? It'd be like taking the cross out of a crucifixion scene!
I feel trapped too......sucks sometimes...... fluctuates from sharp euphoria to disgusting depressions and doom............. guess that's what creative people have to bear.......... the only freedom I experience is staying in the moment...preferably the euphoric moments......and observing around me. When I can't stand myself I listen to guided meditations on CD's....tends to help....... when I can't stand people I cloister myself and tell SOME of them to get out of my way...mostly. Other than that pretty much wherever I go.....I somehow manage to make people smile. It just happens....and a joke and a compliment, even to a stranger makes people smile. And it feels good for both of us. Energy is all around us. I paint, draw, do pottery, love my golden retriever...have insane friends..... and tell people to get out of my face when I am sick of them. I'm never bored.....but pretty much overwhelmed...every day. you are not alone. Doesn't that make you feel better. ahahahahahh
Thanks for liking my crazy night landscape. The altercation. It's kinda how I feel when I fight with people........usually after I've had too much to drink. Brings on creativity though. Van Gogh....Pollack...all of them were nuts....alcoholics.........just don't kill yourself. the attempts are not fun. and they want to put you away without your camera or crayons...........
You are special. and Brave ....people care.......
I have no filters.......it would be different to see this photo with some sort of superimposed electricity coming out of the sockets as if your finger tips are wires....don't try it though.... just noticed the outlets.
Now I get to look at more of your photos.....can't wait! take care......>vivian
I slid this image far enough up on the screen to crop out the ceiling. That way I didn't have to deal with the distraction of the color of the ceiling and the skewed perspective. For me that was a two point difference in my scoring of this image. Brave image, nice work.
