But, I guess my take on it is this... imagine you are on a remote tropical isle. An ancient tiki bar sits high up on a sea cliff. Only way in or out is a door that opens onto the open space high above the sea. You can't get to the door from the land. Yet, every night, lights appear in the bar, a band plays exotica music, and the sounds of people at a party, rum drinks flowing, are heard coming form the glowing establishment through darkened the jungle. It's an idea that got stuck in my head after I read "The Strange High House in the Mist" by H.P. Lovecraft, and it seems to have almost crept in to a few paintings I did before, but it seems it's fully visualized in this one. Even though that was not my intention of what I was painting when I started. [ Edited by: Tiki Shark Art 2012-03-10 13:22 ]
