Sexy Male Nude on Endless Road in New Mexico in a Quest for Meaning

Creator: Mitchell Funk
Offered by: Robert Funk Fine Art

Description
A determined, sexy nude male is poised to sprint down an endless road in New Mexico in a quest for meaning and perhaps to meet his destiny. With surreal lighting and graphic simplicity, the image taps into one's primal instincts. It is both a portrait and a landscape and embodies the past, present, and future. It's full of possible interpretations. Looking at it by either man or woman one can not help but insert themselves into picture. The man on an endless road is everyman/woman.
