i've got a notion as to what inspired this, but i could be wrong.

i'ma go out on a limb and say you were thinking of the Escher Lithograph "Drawing Hands". could be wrong, but hey, it's a good guess. :)

I love the color scheme, and the illustration, but I can't really tell what is being puppeted.

Great idea.. but if the hand is just puppetering the shadow, then why is the shadow flipped?

Thanks for the comments so far...

When I imported the image to flash it cut out a bit of the design (the strings that are attached to the marionette) so you can see the design in detail at:
http://www.geocities.com/dondi94/marry_annette.html

As to the escher comparisons: This design is based on another idea/design that I'd developed before this one, which in itself is inspired by the 'Drawing Hands' lithograph. I'll be submitting that design shortly and you'll see the similarity.

I thought most people would get the idea behind the design, but it seems some don't understand the significance of the flipped shadow. The idea I'm toying with is how in todays world, it seems increasingly harder to control your own life and destiny. Sometimes you invisage how you want things/events in your life to turn out, yet they end up the complete opposite.

very nice indeed. when i first glanced, i thought the shadow was a plane, implying the obvious politcal theme. now i've read the explanation i like it even more.
