Yes, scale is everything. Without my fingers this might appear as a regular shoe. Not one for an athletic GI Joe.
Sometimes we keep trying to squeeze ourselves into a size that does not fit. We have worn a too large or too small size for so long that we think tightness and blisters are the normal course of the day.
Say it ain’t so Joe. Life has to fit just a little better than ill fitting footwear. Either grow to the scale or scale it to fit. Life is not a one size fits all….grow up or grow down but find a custom made fit……monos en theos

Jim, do you think of the message to fit the image, or the image to fit the message, which comes first??
MJ………that seems like a trick question. I for years have tried to fit to the image rather than to present the real image. Mostly in fear of rejection. Having said that and done that all my life, there are times that you do need to adjust. You probably really do need to dress properly, shave and put on deodorant if you are going to a State dinner at the White House, not so much when you go to WallyWorld. But then I have a pretty distorted view of life. There in my post………en theos….jim
MJ……..I am sorry, my wife just read your question and I think I totally misunderstood your question. I most often make my images with no intended message. Not always, but usually that is the way my process evolves. On a rare occasion I do find an image that fits a thought, quote or idea that I have carried around as baggage for a while.
Sorry for my mis-reading, hey, I’m a guy, you got to cut us some slack….en theos…jim
