This was put together for a rock band by the name of "Chimney Rock" The hands in the background are the hands of the songwritter who name escapes me at the moment. The signifigance of the hands is the lines on the palms. Instead of the standard 3 large lines in a W he has only 2 in a V shape. This is known as a semian hand. In iandian and several other cultures this has a great signifigance. The head is that of Calvin McWha the lead singwer of the band. The clouds are from an old photo I had taken a while back. The maid was modeled for by Larissa Wright. Catharsis means the emotional cleansing of the soul. So this is the concept the band had. I ook several shots and use photoshop 7 to combine the elements of different layers using various amounts of translucency to give it a somewhat ghostly appearance.
