Do you want to believe this is 3-dimensional? It is a 3d contest, and this must be a 3d image. . . ergo, it is! That is fantastic. However, if I claimed this was made in Adobe Illustrator, that would be equally believable, but you would cry, "Foul!" and remove the image from the contest. This is also a fantasy. Our imagination stretches to fit any possibility. Anyway, the real truth is 3d as 2d imitating some impossiblities in 3d. Another idea I was playing with, such as the idea of shapes creating composition, similar to George Braque's work. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: Years of thought and work with the possibilities of the medium.
