That is very nicely done indeed, the preciceness of the paint and symmetry of the mask is very well done. Very evocative in its meanings too :clap: well done, a great final piece.

The longer I keep staring at this, the more desperate I get. That skinny figure makes me feel threatened. Like I'm standing in the middle of nowhere and have no chance to escape.

This is a fantastic painting! I like the tone and symmetry of it, and the thn stripe of shadow on the ground, and the figure piercing through the mask...the lightning is very effective as well. So, great job.

I've had a look at the whole series, and it's a wonderful one. In especially like how the dark figure gives the feeling of a thin dagger thrust both through the mask and into the ground. Also, the simple background, without any added silhouette or other element, reflects a kind of desperate loneliness. Everything is isolated here. You can indeed feel the overwhelming part.
