Kevin on this print...
"Who hasn't played those Crane Claw games at an arcade? The shiny prizes are so close, separated only by glass and yet getting them is nearly impossible. Many people have passions and pursuing those passions at times can be like playing a Crane Claw game to get a prize. Perhaps there's only one prize buried among dozens of empty prize shells. Perhaps there is only the promise of a prize, but all of them are empty. Reaching for the prize could be like grasping at floating dandelion seeds, wherein the act of grasping actually pushes it farther away. Even actually grasping the prize isn't a promise, it could still slip out and be lost again. Then again, some people might just get the prize on their first try."
