My submission for Illustration Friday's "Wired" is from one of my posters and the title is "five O" clock". This image was also reworked for a greeting card and it was used for a puzzle in Japan. A birdcage is like a wire house, no?

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely and what a marvelous image. What an appropriate sentiment also for 5:00 o'clock except sometimes it is 6:30 or 10:00PM for me.

I would say it was a wire house.

ReplyDelete5pm is just like that, isn't it? The buildings are still all willy nilly and humming from the day's activities, and not only do you have to leave them physically, you also have to leave the mind set that comes with your job... and sometimes that's tough.
