1. Intriguing. Reminds me of Ed Paschke's work

A much overlooked surrealist painter from Chicago who, sadly, passed away in 2004.

5. You're welcome

He would've been very happy this weekend, no doubt about it.

2. Very interesting

I get a feeling of contradicting messages, or maybe a state of being or state of mind that is in some kind of turmoil.

The sky could be either in the process of getting dark and gloomy or of parting clouds allowing light to shine through. The man doesn’t look happy sitting there in a vast wasteland, naked of any armor of protection, with menacing (?) or clearing (?) sky, but he does look like he’s reacting to his thoughts. The camel signifies a way out by having knowledge of the desert so it can navigate the barren sand dunes. The balloons are another way out, through thoughts maybe. And also a way to rise above the entire desert maybe to rise above the problem.
