Is not a perfect wall
is too bright
is not my style
is kind of simple
and is too blue

but....since the moment I saw that image (took it from http://gallery.minitokyo.net/view/71414/ ) it not only captured my eye but it also inspired me to do something that maybe like i said in the beginning is not perfect but is different and is not like some kind of simple art it is the history and meaning of what you are going somehow to read is the way you express your words by what you can show.

so there it is, the beautiful story of orpheus and euridice
it says
Orpheus, son of the muse Calliope and the god Apollo, was so musically gifted that he was able to entrance gods, humans and animals alike with the sound of his lyre. He was creating a language that had the power to unite all beings. Orpheus was in love with his wife Euridice and everything could have been fine if... she hadn't suddenly died, bitten by a poisonous snake while running away from an unwelcome suitor. The heartbroken Orpheus took his lyre to the gates of Hell and played for the gods. His piece was so beautiful that they allowed him to bring Euridice back from the dead, but on one condition: he could not look back at her. This was a rather cruel and deceitful plan from the gods, because they knew very well that Orpheus was so in love that it would be impossible for him not to look at Euridice ... even just to see that she was actually there. So he lost her for the second time, and now had to blame himself for it and experience the ultimate depth of despair. Finally he was destroyed by Bacchus whom he had forgotten to honor ... but actually Bacchus did him a favor by giving him a way out.

that was all.
here it is another original and strange form of the wall. http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/9387/orpheusandeuridice6lx9xv.jpg

PD: THE EXTRACION WAS LIKE HELL!

    Great work! Woah! This is a real work of art! Great choice of colours and so full of light... It makes me a bit melancholy...
    I like the font you used, but isn't the background a bit empty? Anyway, excellent job!
