NOW THIS, IS AMAZING. So very interesting and unique. Dark and mysterious...but perhaps you should add more to the back ground...

I like this piece, it is great in the way it looks like there is a tree growing out of the top of her zombie like head! And the drizzle going down the picture just adds to the creepiness! This is a cool shot! Great work!

This would have to be by far the best piece that I have ever reviewed before it is a real gothic dark piece reminds me of medusa the Greek deity>
This invokes images of a woman who I belief is viewed as a sex symbol but she views herself much differently the depiction is fantastic I just love everything about this piece please continue on from this I would love to see other images maybe a series of prints involved in the same concept. WELL DONE.......

Wickedly expressionary. You bring alot of inner turmoil and depth to your pieces. I admire the thought that goes into pulling the dark reaches of thought out onto your canvass of creativity. The clouded patterns on the one side of her dress, the stormy dark waters, and the gnarled roots branching out from her head are great elements to this piece. It's almost like you can make out images out of the clouds on her dress. The lighting effects are pretty good....leaving some spots that could use a smoother transition for blend.

Wow, an amazing picture. It's gives a real spooky, scary, mystical feel and not to mention the question as to "why is there a tree coming out of her head"? - it just adds to the mysticism of the picture. Being in black and white also adds to the effect. Good work.

The eyes are really scarey! It is a good look at evil almost, as the picture is threatening! Her headwear of driftwood, or whatever is not reminiscent of deer but of something awful. Best wishes.

As a dark piece this works rather well. I really like the texturing throughout but something seemed a little off with the highlighting in the lower half. The area about the tree trunk was fantastic. The blankness in the eyes put it a little too far over the edge for me. Having the eyes seem closed would have softened the work a bit lending to more drama than shock value. Very nice work!

    The clouding in the torso I felt needed to be added... to show the presence of the body, without actually using a body... wanted to keep the nudity factor out in this effort. Visit www.blacklodgearts.com for more of my work.
