Even the Native American Indians believed of a wondrous future ahead because of Wovakas vision..that’s how Ghost Dancers started up…a misguided perversion of Wovakas prophecy ! He said he spoke with God and was told to tell one’s that in the future the earth will be restored…the dead will come back to life and reunited with loved ones,,,and in the meantime do good

There is a dark foreboding over lighting energy to this piece John. It feels like the rise of the machines. A warning that if we are not vigilant (AI) artificial intelligence will rule over/take over mankind.

This piece John reminds me of 'facing" that internal dialogue that may have confused or really distorted our view of things. This image says to me that the time has come to regain your authority. Not to allow our perceptions to rule over us. Instead me must use our strengths, to overcome our weaknesses and realize that both are necessary in our evolution.
John Alexander replied:
Absolutely wonderful insights Susan... thank you for sharing them. Your words are filled with truth and wisdom. Excellent!

Gosh it does doesn't it! These feelings of desolate insecurity when facing the future are so hard to bare!!! When I start to feel that I try to counteract it by flooding my brain with faith and hope, imagining all the lovely dreams I have coming true in the future....its a battle for sure! An amazing Master Piece as always John.....I tip my hat to you Sir :-)
John Alexander replied:

Desolate insecurities you said, so true. Thought of future gives me shudders. Though full of hope and new vistas, the mess man made will ruin it. Acid rains may mar the very fertility of land. The texture of ground in this picture intensifies my fear of forbidden spectre. I guess, I will have to pull the God by hair to mend the things, if He ever could.
John Alexander replied:
Thank you for sharing these wonderful thoughts Kunchar! I am so happy that you liked the image, and it is always an absolute pleasure when somebody shares what they interpret from my work. Thank you for looking my friend.
