Boundaries. Illustration Friday

Firstly, I have been away. I went to London to visit an amazing exhibition of all things beautiful! It is called TOP DRAWER and I will post a detailed report about what I have seen and liked there a bit later! I need to gather my thoughts on that one, because the amount of beauty and great design was a bit overwhelming!

A slight update! I just had another look at this drawing and decided that it is perfect for this week's topic on Illustration Friday! This drawing is all about boundaries! Literary - it is about the boundaries of the glass jar where the fireflies are confined, but it is also about breaking the boundaries of communication... It is about making the fist step in getting closer. It is about stepping outside of this protective wall that each of us has and opening up to somebody.... Don't you think?
