Silent Song

Inspired by an older portrait, Samantha

Digital painting, drawing, plus elements from older pieces. I love how her hair has fused with the foliage (I can't find a more fitting way to describe it!). 

The detail:

Don't forget to take a peek at the Imagined Portraits print competition below! And thanks so much for all of your entries so far: I'm fascinated by which particular images appeal to you, and the reasons why. This also helps me to get a more finely tuned idea of what to include in new print sets for the future^^

I hear ya!

She makes me think about children who are alone at school, go unnoticed and never belong even though their presence really ought to be seen.

Oh how I adore her ! This little girl pleases me in every way.
Her long, black hair, her little mouth, the little ghostly bows with berries, her tiny feet, her little bunny and, Oh my Goodness, her dress !

Ok, needless to add how much I need her, now.

She's very adorable. I like the colour scheme. The floral designs strewn about at her feet add a sweet element to the picture as well! well done, she's cute!!

I must admit, I watch a lot of subtitled asian "spooky" movies. This image reminds me very much of some of the children in these movies.

It's almost as if her hair is alive with a mind of it's own. Her expression leads one to believe that she is aware of this fact and has given the power over to the hair.

I am quite drawn to this piece:

I keep trying to comment here, but I don't think it's going through. I adore this piece and I have so much I want to say, but I can't get my post to send. Darn!!
