Good job of combining seamlessly. I can find a couple of narratives to fit this; by his expression, those ties are fairly pleasant. The content is beautifully ambiguous.

As always, art is subjective. I see the shackles of a small town vaguely but certainly chaining the people to it, almost evilly and without their conscious knowledge. We never know what is going to bind... perhaps his grandparents, who raised him and are growing too old to keep up... Perhaps his parents owned a long-forgotten and now forlorn country store, left for the IRS when they died in a plane crash... Evocative, Laurie, and very cool.
Have to laugh at this one too. Good thing his leg is uncased with the chain, otherwise it would look like you broke it. The general store is actually a kid's play house and pretty small.--skunk
